Sunderland striker and Team GB hopeful Fraizer Campbell hopes footballers from outside England take part in the London 2012 Olympic Games.
The Scottish, Northern Irish and Welsh football associations have discouraged their players from participating, fearful of losing their independent status within FIFA.
Campbell is confident Wales' Tottenham winger Gareth Bale will make himself available.
Campbell has also given his backing to the Olympics kits, which were unveiled on Thursday.
The 24-year-old was one of more than 30 athletes to attend the launch of the kit created by fashion designer Stella McCartney at the Tower of London.
Blue is the predominant colour but Campbell is confident the strips will be a hit across Britain.
The former Manchester United man said: "It has to represent all the countries so I think Adidas and Stella have done a great job to get everyone combined and bring it out in the kits.
