Bayern Munich-bound wunderkind Nestory Irankunda won’t rule out a switch of international allegiances if he continues to be overlooked for Socceroos squads.
Irankunda, 18, said it was his “dream” to play for Australia but he is also eligible to play for Tanzania and Burundi.
Irankunda was left out of the Olyroos squad based on concerns over his perceived maturity, but delivered an impressive season with Adelaide United, recording eight goals and six assists. Asked if it was his hope that his move to Europe would help him gain more time with the Socceroos, Irankunda said: “It was. But as of now I’m not too sure on how things are gonna go.“I haven’t been called up for a few of the squads now. I’m still thinking on what I’m gonna do in the future, national level. So we’ll see. I’m still eligible for Tanzania, Burundi as well.
