Super Eagles and Nottingham Forest defender, Ola Aina, has revealed he’d love to play alongside Bukayo Saka and Marcus Rashford in a dream Nigerian team, Soccernet.ng reports.

The 28-year-old versatile defender has been one of Forest’s best players in the English Premier League this season, scoring two goals and providing one assist in 30 games for Nuno Espirito Santo’s side.

Aina was born in England and had the opportunity to play for the Three Lions when he was younger, but his heart opted to don the green and white colours of the Nigerian National team.

Quizzed about the English International he’d love to add to the current crop of the talented Super Eagles players, Ola Aina opted for Marcus Rashford and Bukayo Saka.

“Saka or Rashford. I just think Rashford is mad dynamic. He’s quick and direct, like how we play in the Super Eagles. I think Rashford would be a good addition still,” the ex-Chelsea defender said in an interview with ESPN UK.
