Transfer: Alex Iwobi undergoes medical ahead of Fulham move

Super Eagles midfielder Alex Iwobi is currently undergoing a medical examination in preparation for his permanent transfer to Fulham.

Both Fulham and Everton have reached an agreement on a fee, which is reported to be £22 million, including add-ons.

This transfer marks a reunion between Iwobi and Marco Silva, the manager who initially signed him for Everton back in 2019.

At 27 years old, Iwobi is set to become Fulham’s latest addition during this summer’s transfer window.

Fulham has already secured the services of Raul Jimenez, Adama Traore, Calvin Bassey, Timothy Castagne, and goalkeeper Steven Benda.

Iwobi’s arrival at Fulham will significantly enhance competition for places in attacking positions, with his preferred role being on the left wing.

The Nigerian midfielder has made two appearances for Everton this season and has accumulated nine goals in a total of 140 appearances for the club.
