Iwobi: I can 'no longer make excuses' - Nigeria star on his peak period at Everton

The 25-year-old Super Eagle discusses his happiness playing for the Toffees under the former Real Madrid manager

Nigeria international Alex Iwobi has revealed why he can no longer make excuses for himself while playing for Everton under new manager Rafael Benitez.

The 25-year-old Super Eagle has managed 199 minutes under the former Liverpool boss and has scored one goal, provided one assist in seven appearances for the Toffees so far this campaign.

It is a better display from Iwobi, who joined Everton from Arsenal in 2019, and during his first season, he struggled to nail down playing time.
