'He could play another four years' - Iwobi surprised by Cech's retirement decision

Arsenal forward Alex Iwobi has expressed surprise with teammate Petr Cech's decision to retire at the end of the 2018-19 campaign and thinks the goalkeeper can still play for 'another three or four years'.

Cech confirmed on Tuesday that it is the right time to hang up his gloves after aniillustrious career in England where he won four Premier League titles, five FA Cups, a Champions League trophy amongst other individual honours.

Bernd Leno's arrival in the summer has limited the Czech international to a substitute role in recent weeks but Iwobi feels the 36-year-old is still in top form to carry on.
