Fulham manager Marco Silva has praised Nigeria's international footballer, Alex Iwobi.

The talented midfielder is enjoying his best season in the Premier League with the Whites.

Iwobi has thrived in different positions for the London club this season.

The 28-year-old was the star in the Whites 2-1 victory over Chelsea at the Stamford Bridge on Sunday.

According to Silva, the former Arsenal star is in a very good level at the moment.

He was quoted by the club's website: “Alex Iwobi has been great. Last season he was top, his best season up until that point, but this season is going to be better for him.

“He’s in a very good level, he’s scoring, he’s assisting, all in different positions.”

The former Everton player has racked up five goals and three assists in 18 league appearances for Fulham this term.
