Former Super Eagles defender Furo Iyenemi has shared his thoughts on the international future of his son, Kaye Furo, who is eligible to play for both Nigeria and Belgium. In a recent interview, Iyenemi emphasized that the decision ultimately lies with his son, but he hopes Kaye will not face the same challenges he did during his career.
Iyenemi highlighted the mistreatment he experienced while playing for Nigeria, suggesting that such experiences could influence his son’s decision. He pointed out that players with dual nationality often prefer to play for European countries due to better treatment and opportunities. Iyenemi’s comments reflect broader concerns about how Nigerian football administrators treat players and the impact on future generations.
Kaye Furo, currently playing for Club Brugge’s B team, has shown great potential and could be a valuable asset for either national team. As the decision approaches, the football community will be watching closely to see which country Kaye chooses to represent.
