Denny Solomona has vowed to give everything to England's cause when he travels to Argentina on their two-Test tour in June.
Solomona qualified for England on residency grounds in March and was fast-tracked into the national squad as one of 15 uncapped players despite having played just 13 games of union after his controversial cross-code switch.
The Auckland-born prolific winger ran out for Samoa in rugby league and quotes attributed to him from earlier in his career said he would not consider playing for England.
But after arriving in union - and settling in remarkably quickly - he declared his interest to play for Eddie Jones' side.
"I'm willing to give my all for England," Solomona told the Daily Mail. "Like Eddie says, it is not where you come from but if you play with your heart and everything you have got.
"That's what I am going to do. I am going to give my all to England and why shouldn't I? I am eligible. I have got this opportunity now. Why wouldn't I be desperate?
"How do I feel about England? I feel strongly because I have made myself available. There's no doubt I will give 100 per cent. I'm proud that I am Samoan, but I have an opportunity to play for England."
