“In the next months” – Journalist reveals when Tosin Adarabioyo is set to make major career decision  | OneFootball

Tosin Adarabioyo will make a decision on whether to represent England or Nigeria in the “next months” according to journalist Nizaar Kinsella.

Tosin joined Chelsea on a free transfer last summer after his contract with Fulham expired and is currently part of the Club World Cup squad.

The 27-year-old made 22 Premier League appearances as Chelsea secured qualification for the Champions League, and ten in the Conference League as the Blues lifted the trophy in May.

Tosin to pick between England and Nigeria

Tosin has established himself as an important member of the squad and is one of the leaders in the Chelsea dressing room.

The former Manchester City man could start on Saturday night against Benfica in the last 16 of the Club World Cup, and he put in some impressive performances last season.

Competition for places at centre back is fierce, but Tosin has generally delivered when called upon, and is known as “uncle” by Chelsea’s young squad.

Tosin hasn’t played for England yet, and faces a major decision on whether to represent the Three Lions or Nigeria with the 2026 World Cup on the horizon, and Kinsella has provided an update.

He took to X.com and said:

“Tosin Adarabioyo is going to make his England-Nigeria international future decision in the next months.

“The 27-year-old was cautious committing in the last year but wants to play in the World Cup in 2026 and feels established at Chelsea now.”

Chelsea in the market for a centre back

There’s set to be plenty of movement at centre back this summer, with the likes of Rentao Veiga and Axel Disasi set to leave.

There are also question marks over the future of Benoit Badiashile and Trevoh Chalobah, but it’s believed Chelsea are still looking to bring another centre back in.
