Nottingham Forest defender Ola Aina has singled out Fulham’s Alex Iwobi as the most skillful player in Nigeria’s Super Eagles squad, MySportDab Reports.

In a recent appearance on the Counter Attack podcast, Aina spoke highly of his national teammate, emphasizing Iwobi’s exceptional skill set that sets him apart from the rest of the team.

“Alex Iwobi is the most skillful player on the team,” Aina revealed. “If you’re going to say Samuel Chukwueze, he has the body movement, but we are talking about skills.” The 28-year-old defender, who has earned 40 caps since joining the Super Eagles in 2017, has had ample opportunity to observe his compatriots and appreciates the unique talents each player brings to the squad.

Iwobi has been a regular figure in the Nigerian national team since his debut in 2015. When he first burst onto the scene, he was hailed as a promising replacement for Nigerian legend Jay-Jay Okocha, who happens to be his uncle.

While the attacking midfielder’s playstyle has become more refined over the years, his foundational flair and technical skills remain evident, contributing to his standout performances on the pitch.

Currently enjoying a solid season at Fulham, Iwobi has scored two goals and provided one assist in nine appearances.

The former Arsenal and Everton star has grown into a well-rounded player, blending creativity with discipline and physicality that is proving invaluable to both club and country.

Aina’s praise shines a spotlight on Iwobi’s enduring skill and highlights his value to the Super Eagles, who boast an array of talent in Europe’s top leagues.
