Former Nigeria Premier Football League striker Sunday Adetunji has switched international allegiance to Sudan, ending his seven-year association with the Super Eagles and opening a new chapter in his career as he represents the Sudans national team in international competitions. Adetunjis switch comes after months of speculation surrounding his potential departure from Nigerian football. The 31-year-old striker had previously made appearances for several clubs including Plateau United, Akwa United and El-Kanemi Warriors. With Sudan's national team now representing him globally, it remains to be seen how this change will impact Adetunjis career trajectory forward.
