Alex Iwobi has spent more minutes than ever on the pitch this season but the Arsenal winger still has plenty of time for his loved ones.
The Nigerian’s girlfriend, Clarisse Juliette, took to Instagram on Tuesday to share a cute snap of the couple posing for a selfie.
‘When you and your bae don’t need filter, just the flash,’ captioned Juliette, who describes herself as a ‘South American and European Londoner’ on the page
Unsurprisingly Iwobi was all smiles, having earned plenty of plaudits for his dynamic performances this season.
And the 20-year-old has revealed that the advice of team-mate Mesut Ozil has been key to his flourishing role in Arsene Wenger’s first team.
He just gives me advice and help, but it’s such a confidence boost for such a great player to say that about me.
‘I’m the same kid I used to be,’ he added. ‘The same kid who used to work hard. There’s a bit of luck as well.
‘For me to get that chance and take it like I did, I’m just fortunate and happy to have taken them. I guess it’s luck at the end of the day.’
Iwobi is likely to be involved when the Gunners host Ludogorets in the Champions League on Wednesday night.
