The international future of Fikayo Tomori and Tammy Abraham is generating a lot of debate with Frank Lampard the latest name to speak on the issue.
The Chelsea duo are eligible to play for England and Nigeria but are yet to make a decision on who to play for. While they have represented England at youth level, they have not featured for the senior team at a competitive level.
Speaking to Nigerian journalist Oma Akatugba ahead of Chelsea’s champions league match against Lille, Blues manager, Frank Lampard revealed he is not in a position to tell the players on who to represent at international level.
“I don’t feel like it’s my place to tell them what to decide, I never will do with a player because I think there’s so much more that’s important for them individually and for their families to decide on where they want to play their football internationally, so I wouldn’t feel that right to step into that one, unless they ask my opinion on the footballing sense.
Speaking on their brilliant start to the season, Lampard praised the duo but said there’s still a lot of room for improvement.
Chelsea will hope to pick up their first three points in the champions league when they take on Les Douges on Wednesday night.
