"It's one of those things where if it comes, it comes. I'd be happy and I'd go because everyone wants to represent their country.
"But no one has a right to play and no one can demand to play. If the call doesn't come then I'll carry on playing here and doing what I do.
"Club football is your bread and butter and that's the most important thing for me at this time," Aluko told the Mail.
