The travelling won't help us much but good luck to him if he decides to play.

Good luck to him. He won't be picked for England any time soon.

He won't regret it. Better to be a fully-fledged international than to spend your career waiting for an unlikely call.

is it worth the hassle for him to represent Sierra Leone as they are a minor African footballing team who are probably be like Wales.

If it is the like of Cameroon or Nigeria or Ivory Coast, he probably will jump into it.

I doubt he would be eligible.

Sierra Leone is a really poor nation that was ravaged for decades by civil war. So I'd be surprised if they were even close to being as good as Wales. But if a Premier League player in a top team like Villa pledged his allegiance, he'd be the biggest star in the country. Not much chance of that happening here even if he achieves the impossible and gets a full England cap.
