Iwobi has made 22 Premier League appearances for Fulham this season, recording seven goals and three assists.

Iwobi subbed off at half time as Fulham return to winning ways in EPL
Fulham returned to winning ways as the Cottagers secured an important victory against relegation-threatening Leciester City.
Silva speaks on Iwobi’s substitution
Silva has clarified after their victory that Iwobi was substituted out at halftime because he was having trouble with a knock.
)
According to West London Sport, “Iwobi was not substituted because of his performance. He had a difficult 24 hours before the game.
“In the morning, we assessed him, and he was okay to play. But there were doubts if he would have been able to play the full game. At half-time, he was not feeling so well, and we decided to change him.”
There was controversy surrounding the Nigerian midfielder's substitution at halftime despite having a respectable first half.
)
Next week, Fulham will play Manchester United at Craven Cottage. Iwobi now has six days to recuperate from his knock and play for the Cottagers again.
It is doubtful that the Super Eagles player will be out for an extended period because of his strong injury record.
