IWOBI HINTS HE’S NOT PLAYING IN HIS BEST POSITION FOR NIGERIA
Arsenal starlet Alex Iwobi has suggested that he is not playing in his
best position for the Nigerian National Team.
The Hale End Academy product has played in a variety of roles for club
and country, including left winger, right winger, left midfield,
attacking midfield and center forward, but he prefers playing in the
number ten role.
”For me, I have always grown up playing in number ten, not striker
but close to the striker. That has always been my position growing
up,” Iwobi said to ACL Sports.
”I have learnt to adapt to a different position, I have played left
midfield, I have played central midfield, I have played right
midfield.
”I have played in a number of positions but my favourite position
will probably be number ten.”
Leading up to the World Cup, Iwobi is one of Nigeria’s most in-form
offensive players, with four goals in his last seven matches for the
Super Eagles.
