Birthday boy Alex Iwobi gives a great interview to the Times’ Ally Rudd ahead of Fulham’s massive match at Aston Villa this afternoon.
The Nigerian midfielder covers plenty of ground; discussing his family, his desire to give something back to his community, the strength of his relationship with Marco Silva, those secret five-a-side fixtures and why the Whites have been maddeningly inconsistent.
It’s well worth a read, but Rudd’s piece starts with Iwobi’s insistence that his birthday ‘is just another day’ because that’s how he lives his life. We’d like to say happy birthday to Alex and thank you for all his wholehearted performances since he first moved to Craven Cottage from Everton last summer. Have a great day – and let’s all be celebrating another fabulous three points this afternoon.
