<br>Felix Agu, 25 year old [Werder Bremen](https://www.footballinnigeria.com.ng/news/national-team-news/nigerias-all-time-top-10-super-eagles-goal-scorers/) full‑back, declared his eagerness to represent the Super Eagles after [featuring](https://www.footballinnigeria.com.ng/category/football-economics/) twice for Germany’s Under‑21 side. Born in Germany to Nigerian parents, [Agu confirmed](https://www.footballinnigeria.com.ng/news/interviews/sunday-oliseh-names-festus-onigbinde-worst-coach-in-super-eagles-history/) his intention to switch allegiances and join Nigeria’s senior squad. |

<br> |
|||
<br>The defender who has made 14 league appearances this season told Oma Sports that playing for the three‑time African champions has been a lifelong ambition. He revealed discussions with fellow German‑born Nigerian Justin Njimah have strengthened his resolve, calling it "a dream come true". |
|||
<br> |
|||
<br>Agu’s performances in the Bundesliga have sparked interest from both national teams. Having kept his options open after his Under‑21 stint, he emphasises his readiness and "commitment" a promise of heart and identity should he be selected for the Super Eagles. |

<br>Editorial |

<br> |

<br>We view Agu’s declaration as a powerful affirmation of identity and ambition. In an era where dual nationals face tough choices, his openness to don the green‑white‑green is more than a transfer—it’s a personal narrative of belonging. |

|||
<br>We believe his conversation with Justin Njimah reinforces the supportive role of diaspora networks. It shows how community bonds and shared backgrounds can that shape international careers. |

|||
<br>We note the potential impact of his [Bundesliga exposure](https://www.footballinnigeria.com.ng/category/football-events-and-tournaments/). Playing at a high level equips Agu with tactical understanding, physical readiness, and competitive discipline assets Nigeria can integrate immediately. |
|||
<br> |
|||
<br>We also see wider lessons. Nigeria must engage prematurely winnable dual nationals proactively opportunities lost rarely return. Agu’s journey may inspire others to embrace their roots without hesitation. |

|||
<br>Our conviction holds: Agu is not just ready he is resolute. If called up, he will arrive with more than skill he brings story, purpose, and the promise of a new chapter for the Super Eagles. |
