West Ham's Angelo Ogbonna Names Iwobi As One Of Everton's Danger Men
Published: October 17, 2019West Ham defender Angelo Ogbonna has named Alex Iwobi as one of Everton's danger men ahead of the Hammers trip to Goodison Park on Saturday, October 19.
The Nigeria international has caught the eye so far in the 2019-2020 season, contributing to three goals (2 goals, 1 assist) in eight appearances across all competitions.
Everton acquired Iwobi from Arsenal just before the close of the transfer window for a fee in the region of 35 million pounds.
Previewing the game, the Italy international of Nigerian descent told West Ham's official website : ''They will try to step up, so we have to be focused on not conceding, but they have a lot of quality and have spent a lot of money, so they want to compete like we want to compete.
''They have good attacking players like Gylfi Sigurdsson, Alex Iwobi, [Dominic] Calvert-Lewin, Richarlison and a young player I heard a lot about when I was in Juventus and he was in the Academy, Moise Kean, who has a lot of skills and is very strong.

''But we just have to focus on our jobs and getting the three points''.
