Teenage Liverpool winger Jordon Ibe has committed his international future to England, according to Nigeria head coach Sunday Oliseh.
The 19-year-old Liverpool player got his first England U21 call-up earlier this month.
Roy Hodgson could promote him to the Three Lions senior squad, possibly even as early as next month, when England play their dead-rubber Euro 2016 qualifiers against Estonia and Lithuania.
Ibe qualified to play for Nigeria through his father, who was born in the African country.
But Nigeria head coach Oliseh tweeted on Sunday: "Jordon Ibe's family informed me by a telephone call, that he was giving priority to an England call up. We wish them well."
Hodgson said of Ibe earlier this month: "People play for the U21s because they want to play for England.
"If we do call him up, it won't be because we are worried about other nations."
