Australian football wunderkind Nestory Irankunda could turn back on Socceroos

Australian soccer wunderkind Nestory Irankunda has sensationally threatened to play for another country if he does not start getting selected by the Socceroos.

The Bayern Munich-bound teenager dropped the huge bombshell after taking part in the A-League Men’s All-Stars’ 8-0 demolition of a severely-depleted Newcastle United side at Marvel Stadium on Friday night.

Irankunda was born in a Tanzanian refugee camp and his parents are from Burundi, so he is eligible to play for either country.

The 18-year-old, who has scored 16 goals from 60 matches with Adelaide United, including a memorable hat-trick against Western United in March, is yet to represent Australia.

The closest he has come is being a train-on player for two friendlies against Ecuador last year.
