Alex Iwobi has been exceptional. Last season, he was at his best, his best so far, but this season will be even better for him,” Silva said in an interview with the club’s official website.
He is at a very good level, he scores, he makes assists, and this in different positions.
Iwobi, who joined Fulham from Everton, has been a key player in the heart of the team’s midfield, proving himself as one of the Premier League’s most dynamic and adaptable players.
