“Choosing Nigeria? It’s not easy to say. If the Netherlands aren’t calling, then I’ll choose Nigeria.”
“Are they even calling? Maybe. The competition there for attackers is perhaps just as great as in the Dutch team. Nigeria has Boniface, Osimhen, and many more attackers.”
“My dream has always been the Dutch national team. However, the EUROs is not necessarily a crossroad. If that doesn’t happen then, I’ll look further.” (Algemeen Dagblad)
Joshua was Born in the Netherlands to a Dutch father and a Nigerian mother and is eligible to play for both countries.
He has represented the Netherlands in a youth international tournament.
