Super Eagles midfielder Alex Iwobi reveals that his music career complements his football life, emphasizing that it doesn't interfere with his performance on the pitch. His latest track, "What's Luv?," promotes positive messages and celebrates his African roots while inspiring youth to pursue their dreams.
Super Eagles and Fulham midfielder Alex Chuka Iwobi has shared insights into his burgeoning music career, emphasizing that it complements rather than competes with his football life. Following a standout performance against Everton, where he chose to refrain from celebrating his goal out of respect for his former team, Iwobi has made headlines not only for his on-field skills but also for his musical endeavors.
Iwobi, who made his name with Arsenal and has evolved into a key player in the Premier League, recently collaborated with former teammates Chuba Akpom and Medy Elito for his debut single "Don’t Shoot," which has garnered nearly 60,000 streams on Spotify. He has since released a new track titled "What’s Luv?" aimed at promoting positive messages and celebrating his African heritage.
In an interview with BBC Sports, Iwobi discussed his motivations for making music, particularly his desire to inspire youth from challenging backgrounds to pursue their dreams. “Creating music does not detract from my football career; rather, it provides a way to unwind,” he noted.
