Queens Park Rangers midfielder Ebere Eze is still undecided over his international future despite overtures from Nigeria head coach, Gernot Rohr, reports Completesports.com.<\/p>\n

Eze who is born to Nigerian parents , trained with the Super Eagles in October , 2017 but later featured for the England\u2019s U-20 side.<\/p>\n

Eze was called up to the England U-21 squad in September this year by manager Aidy Boothroyd for the UEFA<\/a> European Under-21 Championship qualifiers against Turkey and Kosovo. He was an unused substitute on both occasions.<\/p>\n

He is however still eligible to play for Nigeria as he is yet to feature for England\u2019s senior side.<\/p>\n

The 21-year-old has been in fantastic form for QPR in the Sky Bet Championship this season and has scored six goals in 14 league appearances for the Londoners.<\/p>\n

The talented midfielder is seen as the long -sought successor to former Super Eagles captain, Austine Jay Jay Okocha.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have approached him, but not directly. Tunde Adelakun , my assistant, spoke to his mum. What we understand is that there is a lot of pressure on him and Ebere Eze doesn\u2019t want to give an
\nanswer now,\u201d Rohr told veteran journalist, Osasu Obayiwana in an interview.<\/p>\n

\u201cObviously, we would love to have him in the @NGSuperEagles, of course! We continue to work on getting him. It may take some time.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
