The 24-year-old was recently named in Nigeria’s squad for the upcoming Unity Cup invitational tournament by head coach Eric Chelle. He had been training with the team while awaiting FIFA’s approval to switch national allegiance.
With the DFB’s confirmation and FIFA’s clearance, Agu is now officially eligible to represent Nigeria at the senior level.
