Destiny Udogie, an Udinese star, has stated that he would rather play for Italy than Nigeria.



According to the 19-year-old, he has a strong affinity for Italian football and would relish the opportunity to play for the Azzurris.

Udogie, who was born in Italy but is of Nigerian origin, is currently on loan from Hellas Verona.
