• Noni Madueke's international future has become a subject of huge debate in recent times
• The Chelsea forward is eligible to don the colours of either the Super Eagles Nigeria or England
• An English football expert has made a bold prediction about the international future of the forward

The international future of Noni Madueke is a recurring topic of discussion. The 22-year-old, who currently plays on the international scenes for the U21 team of England, is among the many players expected to make a decision regarding his international career soon.

The Chelsea forward is eligible to play for either the Super Eagles of Nigeria or the senior England national team.

Despite his recent impressive performance, which featured a brace in England U21's 7-0 victory over Luxembourg, he has yet to receive a call-up to the senior England team under coach, Gareth Southgate.

However, as speculation continues about Madueke's international future, an English football expert has shared his prediction on which country the talented winger will ultimately choose to represent.

Football expert predicts Madueke's international future

In an interview as captured by OwnGoalNigeria, English football expert, Mark John, aired his thoughts on the international future of the winger.

Stressing the fact he doesn't see him playing for the Three Lions, he stated:

"I really don't see him breaking into the England senior setup in the near future, which could prompt him to make a quicker decision, especially if the option of playing for Nigeria remains open.

At just 22, he's very ambitious. I don't think he'll wait long before choosing his next international career move. Personally, I see him playing for Nigeria sooner than England. I believe he's aware of that too."

These vivid remarks from the football expert are sure to spark excitement among Nigerian fans who eagerly anticipate Madueke's potential switch of allegiance.

Should the 22-year-old confirm his decision to switch, he would follow in the footsteps of players like Ademola Lookman, Alex Iwobi, and Bright Osayi-Samuel, who have recently chosen to represent Nigeria after initially being part of England's setup.
