He was at the centre of a remarkable will he, won't he transfer during 2024 and now Manchester United's teenage goal machine could be thinking about making a big international change.
Chido Obi-Martin, was spotted donning his old England under-16s kit during a Christmas training session as he keeps working on his game. The 17 year old made two appearances for the Young Lions in a UEFA development tournament in Cyprus last March. He came on as a second-half substitute in matches against Scotland and the hosts, both of which England won 3-0.
The thing is, he has since switched allegiances to play for Denmark - having previously played three times for the Danes at Under-16 level in October 2022 before linking up with the Young Lions.
He has since gone on to take his tally of caps for Denmark to 29, having been born in Glostrup, a suburb of Copenhagen. Obi-Marin has a Danish mother and a Nigerian father, making him eligible to represent Nigeria at international level too.

Nevertheless, in a Christmas Eve training session, Martin wore the No.23 England shirt he had worn back at the UEFA tournament.
He duly posed for a photo after the session with coaches Garry Richards, Kudus Oyenuga, and West Ham United under-18s player Chukwumeka Obi - and of course the snap made its way to Instagram.
Could it be a hint that he is pondering an international U-turn?
He doesn't have to make a decision until he plays competitive matches for a senior national team. However, in a chat with Danish newspaper Bold in March, he expressed his desire to play for his country of birth.
