In the line-ups
30 appearances in recorded line-ups · 2017–2024The archive holds 30 team sheets naming Alex Iwobi in Nigeria's starting line-up, from 2017-06-10 to 2024-11-14.
30 appearances in the starting line-ups the archive holds — not a career total. Our line-up coverage is partial, so a match he played that we hold no sheet for is simply not counted here.
