h1> Olise Opens Up On Reason He Dumped Nigeria h2> Crystal Palace winger Michael Olise has revealed the reason why he decided to play for England instead of Nigeria.

The 20-year-old was born in London to Nigerian parents, but he chose to represent the Three Lions at the international level.

In an interview with The Guardian, Olise said that he made the decision after speaking to England manager Gareth Southgate.

“I spoke to Gareth Southgate and he told me that he sees me as a player who can add something to the England team,” Olise said.

“That was a big factor in my decision. I want to play for a team that believes in me and that I can make a contribution to.

“I think I can bring something different to the England team. I’m a creative player who can beat players and create chances for my teammates.

“I’m also a good finisher. I think I can score goals for England.

“I’m excited about the future with England. I think we have a good team and we can achieve great things.”

Some fans have accused Olise of being disloyal to his country of birth, while others have wished him well.

Olise has said that he understands the disappointment of Nigerian fans, but he insists that he made the decision that was best for his career.

“I understand that some Nigerian fans are disappointed with my decision, but I hope they can understand that I made the choice that was best for me,” Olise said.

“I’m still proud of my Nigerian heritage, and I will always be grateful for the support that I have received from Nigerian fans.

“I wish the Nigeria national team all the best in the future.”

h2> Olise’s decision to play for England is a reminder that players have the right to choose which country they represent.

FIFA rules allow players to switch national teams if they have not played a competitive match for their first country.

In recent years, a number of high-profile players have switched national teams, including Wilfried Zaha, who switched from England to Ivory Coast.

Olise’s decision to play for England is a reminder that players have the right to choose which country they represent.

It is also a reminder that national teams are not always based on nationality, but on a player’s desire to represent a particular country.
