Alex Iwobi hit a career milestone on June 10, 2026, earning his 100th cap for Nigeria’s Super Eagles during an international friendly against Portugal in Leiria. The Nigerian Football Federation marked the occasion by presenting the Fulham midfielder with a special commemorative plaque before kickoff.
Iwobi now stands alongside just three other Nigerians who have reached the century mark: Joseph Yobo, Vincent Enyeama, and Ahmed Musa.
A journey that started in 2015
Iwobi’s Super Eagles career began in 2015, when the London-born midfielder made the decision to represent Nigeria over England. He’s been vocal about having zero regrets.
Over his first 99 appearances, Iwobi tallied 10 goals and 8 assists.
