In fine form since the start of the season, Alex Iwobi continues to dazzle Premier League observers. In every match, the Nigerian midfielder leaves his mark with captivating performances.

Scoring against Manchester United on February 24th, Alex Iwobi once again found the back of the net against Wolverhampton FC last weekend. Despite his goal, Fulham suffered a 1-2 defeat against the Wolves. Nevertheless, this didn’t stop the Nigerian from being dangerous. According to WhoScored.com, Alex Iwobi created seven goal-scoring opportunities against Wolverhampton. With this statistic, the Super Eagles midfielder sets the record as the only player to achieve such a feat this season in the Premier League.

Currently, the Lagos-born player has amassed 5 goals. This is a tally he hasn’t reached in England since the 2014/15 season with Arsenal U21. Valued at 28 million euros, Alex Iwobi earns an annual salary of 6,996,790 euros (4,547,913,500 FCFA) at Goodison Park.
