‘Let's see his reaction’ - Fulham manager gives update on Iwobi’s injury

Iwobi has been a key player for Fulham this season, playing a key role in their performance despite the team not being at their best yet.

Iwobi, who played 76 minutes in last weekend's 1-0 victory over Leeds United, was a potential doubt for the upcoming match after picking up an injury.

With concerns about his injury, a decision is yet to be made on if he will feature this weekend, despite training with the team.

During his pre-match press conference, Silva allayed fears, stating that the Nigerian international participated in Friday's training session and could feature against the Bees.

"No fresh news, some knocks, but nothing serious. Nothing to change anything special," Silva told reporters.

"[Alex] Iwobi trained this morning, so no serious problem. Let's see his reaction. We took care of him."

The Super Eagles star enjoyed his most productive season last year, contributing nine goals and six assists in 38 Premier League appearances.

As Fulham aim to build on their recent form after a slow start to the season, Silva will be keen to have the 29-year-old available for selection.
