Fulham eyes Iwobi return to London, challenges lie ahead
Posted : 30 August 2023
Fulham is reportedly pursuing a transfer for Arsenal's Hale End Academy graduate Alex Iwobi before the deadline, engaged in discussions with Everton for the Nigerian international's signing.
This move would reunite Iwobi with former colleague Marco Silva, now Fulham's manager, who was involved in his Everton transfer in 2019.
Iwobi's experience under Silva at Everton involved 16 matches, two goals, and an assist. Despite Fulham's interest, competition arises from an unnamed Premier League team and a European club, both attracted to the 27-year-old midfielder.
Although Iwobi has been offered a contract extension by Everton, negotiations have prolonged, while his Premier League journey features 17 goals and 29 assists in 223 appearances.
His international experience includes participation in the Super Eagles' 2018 World Cup and two Africa Cup of Nations tournaments.
