Denmark Expert Panicking Over Osula: “We Must Not Lose Him to Nigeria”

Denmark had four chances to tie William Osula down. They didn’t take any of them.

The Newcastle United forward is eligible to switch to Nigeria — he’s never played a cap-tying match for Denmark’s senior team. And now the Nigeria Football Federation has opened preliminary discussions. Three goals in his last four Premier League matches have only made the situation more urgent.

Danish football expert Emil Berggreen has gone public with his concern. “We must not lose William Osula,” he said, calling on coach Brian Riemer to launch a personal charm offensive and convince the player his future is brighter in red and white.

Riemer left Osula on the bench during World Cup qualifiers against Scotland, Greece, North Macedonia, and Czech Republic. He may have left the door open for Nigeria.
