England, Nigeria and Canada join the chase for Tomori

England, Nigeria and Canada are in a three-way tussle for the services of Fikayo Tomori, with the Chelsea centre-half's impressive displays putting him on Gareth Southgate's radar.

Tomori, who was born in Canada to Nigerian parents, but the family moved to Gravesend when he was a baby, had played for Canada's Under 20 team and for England's Under 20 and Under 21 teams.

But as with Tammy Abraham, Nigeria are pressing hard to recruit two of Chelsea's progress. Abraham has played for the England senior team but has yet to play in a competitive match and so can switch nationalities under FIFA rules,

Tomori is non-committal at present and said: 'I'm a citizen of all three [countries] so we'll see. I was born in Canada and lived there about seven or eight months old. My family is Nigerian, obviously I live in England. It's nice to have that. I can't play Under-21 football anymore so the last international break I didn't get called up to anyone. Next one maybe we'll see.'
