Cornerstonenewsng.comunderstands Queens Park Rangers midfielder Ebere Eze turned down the opportunity to be included in Gernot Rohr’s Super Eagles squad for the upcoming 2021 AFCON qualifiers with Benin Republic and Lesotho.
Eze has been one of the QPR’s best performers this season, scoring six goals from midfield position to attract interest from Nigeria’s Franco-German manager.
Reports revealed that Rohr spoke with Eze and tried to convince him to switch allegiance to Nigeria from England, the country he represented at U19 level last year.

Ebere Eze had previously trained with Super Eagles in 2017 during their training camp in London, with Nigeria confident he commit his future to the country , but everything went cold following a suspected pressure from the English FA.
