Iwobi Targets New Assist Record Against Nottingham Forest

Iwobi Aims to Break Premier League Assist Record

Alex Iwobi has the opportunity to break the record for most assists by a Nigerian in the Premier League. The Fulham winger will be looking to add to his tally of 30 assists when his team faces Nottingham Forest on Saturday.

Iwobi recently surpassed former Arsenal forward Kanu Nwankwo’s record of 29 assists. The match against Nottingham Forest offers him a chance to further extend his lead.

Forest are expected to feature Nigerian players Ola Aina and Taiwo Awoniyi in the encounter. The two teams met last season, with Forest emerging victorious with a 3-1 win at the City Ground.
