Victor Moses set to shun England for Nigeria after under-21 snub

Victor Moses is ready to answer a World Cup call from Nigeria - after being snubbed by England's under-21 team.
Wigan's £2.5 million signing qualifies for the African nation because he was born there - with both his parents also from the country.
Attacker Moses only played for England's youth teams because of residency rules but now he could change his allegiance back to the land of his birth.
Moses is 'fed up' with being left out of the starting line-up and bench for the under-21 game last week when Stuart Pearce stuck with his old favourites.
And now the 19-year-old, rated a top prospect by boss Roberto Martinez, is open to a Nigeria call-up, with new coach Lars Lagerback and the country's FA on his trail.
Moses faces a very big decision shortly, but the chance to play in South Africa this summer - so soon after he was ignored by Pearce - may just swing it back to his roots.
