International Career
Because of his mixed heritage, Nardiello could have played international football for Wales, England, Italy. He said this himself, as the Rotherham club programme copied an extract from Wikipedia saying he could have also played for Puerto Rico and USA, but he said it was just the three stated prior to this. He played at under-15 and under-16 levels for England. However, in the end he decided to follow his father, Donato, who played twice for Wales in the early 1980s. He made his first appearance for Wales in a friendly against New Zealand on 26 May 2007. coming on as a 65th minute substitute for Robert Earnshaw.

Famous quotes containing the word career:
“He was at a starting point which makes many a man’s career a fine subject for betting, if there were any gentlemen given to that amusement who could appreciate the complicated probabilities of an arduous purpose, with all the possible thwartings and furtherings of circumstance, all the niceties of inward balance, by which a man swings and makes his point or else is carried headlong.”
—George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)
