The Chelsea centre-back participated in the Blues’ 2-0 loss to Newcastle after joining the team on a free transfer from Fulham in the summer.
Adarabioyo is eligible to play for any country because of his Nigerian ancestry and his childhood England representation, but he hasn’t committed yet.
However, he has yet to decide between Nigeria and England as he considers his options before making a final decision.
Iwobi has revealed that he and his old teammate had already talked about the prospect of Iwobi representing Nigeria.
Iwobi told Making of Champions as per Brila, “He’s a great player, and I know his qualities, having played both with and against him.
“We would love to have him on the team, but ultimately, it’s his decision. I’ve spoken to him about playing for Nigeria, but he mentioned that he wants a team where he can have stability and secure a regular spot.
At the end of the day, the choice is his. I’m sure he’s happy at Chelsea, a big club. As long as he’s enjoying his football, that’s what matters.”
Iwobi claims that Adarabioyo is now more concerned with obtaining a consistent position at Chelsea than he is with deciding his future on the international scene.
