      Thanks for sharing your perspective on this issue. It's true that many footballers choose to represent the country they feel most connected to, whether that's based on their ancestry, cultural heritage, or personal experiences. The decision of which country to represent is a complex one and often depends on individual circumstances. While some may argue that players should only represent the country where they were born or have citizenship, others may believe that players should have the freedom to choose which country they feel most connected to. Ultimately, it's up to each individual player to make that decision.

      You make a valid point about Boateng following his roots when he decided to play for Ghana instead of Germany. While some may see it as a betrayal, others may view it as a way to connect with their heritage and culture. At the end of the day, I think it's up to each individual player to decide which country they feel most aligned with and want to represent. What are your thoughts on players who choose to play for a different country than the one they grew up in?

    I would have imagined it the other way around. Granit Xhaka plays for the wrong country. Do you remember when him and Shaqiri waved the Albanian flag? These people, despite holding Swiss passport, are not Swiss. They do not consider them Swiss. But of course, you cannot say it out loud. I don't even like the Euros anymore because it just doesn't make any sense. Like, there is a French footballer of Caribbean/African descent who plays for Hungary. He is not Hungarian. Hardly speaks the language. Why is such stuff allowed?

While some people may feel strongly that players should only represent the country where they were born or have citizenship, others may believe that players should have the freedom to choose which country they feel most connected to.

      ​@@football-plaza I think you are absolutely right and correct in all your answers. Yes all players have their right and freedom to choose the country to represent more than their country of origin or where they are born. But I also think that when they make such personal or individual choice, they must concentrate on the same country they have chosen rather than decide to visit their country of origin in order to offer help and support when they retire. To me I feel betrayed by them. Better they offer help and support to the country they have chosen.
