Fulham midfielder Alex Iwobi made history on Sunday by becoming the first Nigerian to feature in all 38 Premier League matchdays for two consecutive seasons.
The former Arsenal star first reached the milestone during the 2022/23 campaign. He repeated the feat this season, coming on as a 61st-minute substitute for Harry Wilson in Fulham’s 2-0 loss to Manchester City at Craven Cottage.
Iwobi’s appearance marked his 38th of the 2024/25 season. Over the campaign, the 29-year-old contributed nine goals and six assists.
