I thought they did in the 50's.
Joe was the first English international to play for a non English team

I thought they did in the 50's. Joe was the first English international to play for a non English team He was also the first player to be picked that had never played for an English team i think. |

Thought was a trick but does say Football Trivia.
Paul- Joe Baker played for England and his brother played for Argentina against each other. Their father was Argentinian and mother Scottish. Both chose different national sides. Obviously not the answer you have
See someone posted above the same. Am sure was Argentina but could be right above

Both chose different national sides. Obviously not the answer you have See someone posted above the same. Am sure was Argentina but could be right above They didn't actually choose to play for England and USA, they both wanted to play for Scotland, but back then you had to play for the country you were born in. Joe was born in Liverpool, and his brother was born in USA (their father was in the forces) |
