International career

Obiang capped for Spain at youth levels. Obiang received a call up for Porto International Tournament in April 2011.[10]

Due to his Fang background, Gabonese Football Federation tried unsuccessfully to persuade Obiang to play for Gabon, although both his parents and his grandparents are from Equatorial Guinea. In November 2011, they included him in a squad list for a match between the country's U20 and China U20, however he ignored the call.[11]

Being eligible to represent Equatorial Guinea, in 2011, the country's federation approached Obiang to enquire if he would be willing to represent the country at the 2012 Africa Cup of Nations, however Obiang declined.[12] In April 2015, after a meeting with the Equatoguinean Football Federation people, Obiang's stance on representing Equatorial Guinea appeared to have changed after showing a desire to play for the country.[13] On 5 October 2016, Obiang reunited in London with Equatoguinean Football Federation president Andrés Mbomio, and Equatoguinean national team coach and coordinator, Esteban Becker and Juvenal Edjogo-Owono respectively, to reach an agreement.[14]
