Share on FacebookShare on TwitterShare on Whatsapp

Fulham midfielder Alex Iwobi has cemented his place in Premier League history by surpassing John Mikel Obi to become the fourth-highest capped Nigerian player in the league’s history. Iwobi achieved this milestone during Fulham’s 1-1 draw against Crystal Palace at Craven Cottage, marking his 250th appearance in the Premier League.

Formerly tied with Mikel on 249 appearances, Iwobi’s consistent presence on the pitch has now elevated him to fourth place among Nigerian players in the league’s annals. The 27-year-old showcased his enduring influence by featuring for the entirety of the match against Crystal Palace.

With this achievement under his belt, Iwobi now sets his sights on surpassing Yakubu Aiyegbeni, who currently occupies third place with 252 appearances. As Iwobi continues his ascent up the ranks, the prospect of surpassing Aiyegbeni looms large, further solidifying his legacy in Premier League history.

Shola Ameobi holds the top position among Nigerian players with 298 appearances, followed by Nwankwo Kanu with 273, highlighting the illustrious company in which Iwobi finds himself as he etches his name in the league’s records.
