Super Eagles midfielder Alex Iwobi has joined the elite company of Premier League royalty after becoming only the fifth player in the competition’s history to make 100 appearances for three different clubs, PUNCH Sports Extra reports.

Iwobi reached the landmark after starting for Fulham in their 3-2 defeat to Crystal Palace at Craven Cottage on Saturday.

The Nigeria international had already made 100 Premier League appearances for Arsenal and 123 for Everton before completing his century for the Cottagers.

He now joins Gareth Barry, James Milner, Gary Speed and Rory Delap as the only players to have achieved 100 or more Premier League appearances for three separate clubs, taking his overall tally in the competition to 322 matches.

Fulham took the lead in the 11th minute when Joshua King collected the ball inside the box before firing a deflected effort past Dean Henderson. Palace responded through Tyrick Mitchell in the 35th minute, after his earlier effort had been ruled out for offside following a VAR review.
