One England player could be forced to change international allegiance ahead of Euro 2024 amid fresh doubt over whether he will play at the tournament.
That means the squad numbers are restored to pre-Covid levels, with UEFA initially taking the decision ahead of Euro 2020 in case of an outbreak of the virus.But the new rule change means he will not be able to select three players that otherwise would have been involved if squad numbers were set at 26.Nketiah can still switch international allegiance to Ghana as he is yet to play a competitive fixture for the Three Lions. He is eligible to feature for Ghana as his parents are Ghanaian.
However, the Arsenal forward has appeared to indicate that playing for England is where his future lies - even if opportunities are limited moving forwards.:"It's a really proud moment for me, my family and my friends. It has been quite the journey to get here - a lot of ups and downs."Once the call-up was there, an offer was on the table, it was really hard to turn down and something which I felt was a natural progression for myself at this stage.
