In November, ahead of the matches against Slovakia and Azerbaijan in the Nations League, Elanga was not included in Dahl Tomasson's squad.

In Viaplay, the 22-year-old football striker comments on the situation.

It's between me and Jon, but right now I'm 100 percent focused on Nottingham. I've started the season great. When the national team comes, then I'll be there if they need me.

Furthermore, he makes it clear that he is open to playing in the blue and yellow jersey.

I'm always open. It's a great honor to represent the national team, but right now I'm focusing a lot on Nottingham, he says and continues:

For me, rhythm is important. You don't want to go somewhere and not get to play, and then come back and get started again.

In 19 U21 national team matches, Elanga has scored three goals.
