It is Marco Silva’s hope that Alex Iwobi will play a significant role for Fulham at Vicarage Road.
On Saturday, Iwobi helped the Cottagers to a 1-0 victory over Luton Town, and he played a key role in that victory.
The Nigerian international came on for Harrison Reed two minutes later.
Late in the game, the 27-year-old came close to scoring, but his shot struck the post.
Silva believed Iwobi will develop into a key contributor for his team.
It’s great to see Alex receive some early playing time. They will undoubtedly develop as players thanks to our style of play. In an interview with the club’s official website, Silva expressed his delight at the new additions.
On transfer deadline day, Iwobi made the move to the Whites from Everton.
