In rare circumstances. If a player has dual naionality, and is capped in a non "A" competitive game (so a friendly basically) he can they change his allegiance once. But only once. A recent example would be Italy's Thiago Motta, who has 2 full caps for Brazil, having played in the Gold Cup for them. (As guest nation this counted as a friendly tournament).
