SuperSport United defender Ime Okon has publicly declared his intention to represent the South African national team, Bafana Bafana.

Born to a Nigerian father and a South African mother, Okon is eligible to play for both countries. However, the 20-year-old has made it clear that his heart lies with South Africa.

“The whole Nigerian thing, I have Nigerian family, I speak to those from Nigeria, and they also say even if people pressurise me, I must make a choice that I must be happy with,” Okon told iDiski Times.

“I grew up here, everything I know is South African you know. For them, they wouldn’t be touched if I played for Bafana. South Africa is all I know. I can barely speak the native Nigerian language, but I know my roots.”

Okon’s declaration is a significant boost for South African football, as he is considered one of the most promising young defenders in the country.

His potential addition to the Bafana Bafana squad could strengthen the team’s defensive line and contribute to their future success.
