Alex Iwobi has paid a heartfelt tribute to Bill Kenwright after the Everton chairman passed away.
Kenwright, 78, had undergone surgery to remove a cancerous tumour from his liver in August. Complications during surgery led to him spending a prolonged period in intensive care before he returned home two weeks ago.
However, Everton announced the tragic news on Tuesday evening that Kenwright - who first joined the board at Goodison Park in 1989 - had passed away peacefully on Monday while surrounded by his family and loved ones.
Iwobi moved to Everton from Arsenal in 2019 for an initial £28million fee and went onto make 140 appearances for the club before joining Fulham this summer.
