Former Nigerian U-23 striker Kehinde Fatai has claimed that his dream of playing for the Romanian national team was thwarted by the Nigeria Football Federation, The PUNCH reports. “Honestly, I never felt that pressure to play for the Eagles after the NFF denied me a chance to play for Romania,” Fatai told The PUNCH. Every player can’t and won’t play for the national team even if they deserve it. “The Romanian national team wanted me to play for them. They tried all they could to get me but the NFF blocked the move and ever since then I forgot about national team football.
