Alex Iwobi is enjoying a standout run at Fulham, and European analyst Julien Laurens believes it’s time the Nigerian midfielder gets the recognition he deserves – www.isagoal.com reports.
The BBC Radio 5 Live pundit described Iwobi as “one of the best in the country,” while also insisting Marco Silva has been undervalued despite his impact in West London.
Fulham’s 3-1 win over Brentford last weekend showcased Iwobi’s influence as he scored and set up another, underlining why Silva keeps him central to his plans.
Now 29, Iwobi is closing in on a personal milestone with just three more matches needed to reach 300 Premier League appearances.
His 2024/25 campaign was the most productive of his career in England, with 9 goals and 6 assists across 38 matches.
Laurens also pointed to the dynamic partnership between Iwobi and Antonee Robinson on the left flank, calling their combination “one of the best in the country.”
Summer business saw Fulham add Kevin and Benjamin Lecomte, while securing Samuel Chukwueze and Jonah Kusi-Asare on loan from AC Milan and Bayern Munich.
