Nigeria football star, Alex Iwobi has attended the Paris Fashion Week in grand style as his club, Fulham prepares for pre-season in Germany.
The talented Fulham midfielder showed class in the latest summer fashion trends while also partaking in exhibition matches and exploring chic Parisian boutiques during his well-deserved break, PUNCH Sports Extra reports.
As the Pre-season preparations across Premier League clubs are set to kick off early this month, Iwobi last Wednesday, expressed his readiness for the next season as his club shared a spirited Instagram post featuring Iwobi in the club’s jersey, captioned ‘Reset. Ready.’
So far, the club is engaged with rigorous training regimes and friendly fixtures designed to fine-tune team fitness ahead of the 2024/25 season opener scheduled for the weekend of August 16.
Meanwhile, Crystal Palace commenced their preparations with a closed-door friendly against National League side Sutton United.
Do far, Fulham’s last match of the pre-season is yet unconfirmed on their official website and on the Premier League website.
For the club’s last pre-season, on August 10, Fulham will travel to TSG 1899 Hoffenheim for a friendly. It’s the second year in a row they’ve faced the Germans, following their 2-1 win at Craven Cottage last summer, with Iwobi’s compatriot Calvin Bassey getting on the scoresheet.
Iwobi had a great outing in his first season at the last campaign with the Cottagers, following his £22m move from Everton. His debut season proved successful following his £22m move from Everton, culminating in his best-scoring league record to date.
On his feat for the club, the Nigeria international scored five Premier League goals, previously never scoring more than three for Arsenal in a single season, while his best return at Everton was just two goals.
Iwobi also provided two assists, bringing his goal contributions last season to seven in 30 top-flight appearances.
