Werder Bremen defender Felix Agu has expressed his desire to snub Germany in order to represent the Super Eagles of Nigeria.
Felix Agu has made it clear that he is open to the possibility of playing for Nigeria under new boss Eric Chelle.
Agu was born in Germany to Nigerian parents and has excelled during his time at Werder Bremen, playing as a versatile full-back, who has also been used in defensive midfield.
The 25-year-old left-back has made 85 appearances since joining Bremen in 2020, scoring 3 goals.
