Iwobi was a crucial part of Everton’s Premier League survival, as he played all 38 matches in the league campaign, scoring two goals and assisting seven more.
Iwobi enjoys peers' admiration
Despite playing in different positions across two managers for Everton, Iwobi remained consistent in his performances and has been recognised for his contribution to the team with the Players’ Player of the Year award.
In presenting this year’s award winner, Everton’s statement referenced Iwobi, saying, “Iwobi continued his impressive form from the previous season and topped the Players' Player vote after playing a crucial role in several different positions, as well as providing a club-high of eight assists.”
Everton will be hoping to recover from the relegation dogfight in the 2022/23 season by pushing on in the 2023/24 season, likely with Iwobi at the centre of the team’s success again.
