Published on: 25 October 2017

Nigerian international Alex Iwobi has eulogized the performance of Ghanaian forward Edward Nketiah following his exploits against Norwich City in the Carabao Cup on Tuesday.

The 18-year-old rose from the bench to score a brace for Arsenal to power them to a comeback 2-1 win over Norwich City to send them through to the next round of the Carabao Cup.

And the manner which he scored the goal has lead to talks about his prolific nature in front of goal.

"Eddie (Nketiah) just finds the goals. Some people have that instinct just to get the ball and put it in the net with just one chance. He’s somebody who’s able to find the goal, not just for Arsenal but for England as well. He’s definitely one for the future," Iwobi said.

Nketiah is eligible to play for Ghana despite featuring for England at youth level.
