Les Ferdinand told the Beautiful Game Podcast, in quotes “If you look at his footballing ability I could put him down as one of the best I have seen in terms of what I have been fortunate to play with in my career, when I see some of the things he does on a football and how comfortable he is on a football, I put him up there as one of the best I have seen.”

Despite represented England at the youth level, Ebere Eze 21, is still eligible to represent Nigeria super eagles because he is yet to play for the Three Lions of England, and he has been spotted with Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) President Amaju Pinnick several times and we’re very sure he will soon make his decision to represent his parents’ country.
