Alex Iwobi Misses Arsenal U21 Clash Vs Aston Villa

Alex Iwobi was not in the Arsenal U21s squad that lost 2-1 to their Aston Villa counterparts in the Under 21 Premier League Division 2 on Monday afternoon at Meadow Park.

This has fueled speculation that the Nigeria international could be named in the match day squad for the Premier League clash with Manchester City at the Emirates tonight.

The 19 - year - old was one of the five youngsters that trained with Arsenal’s first team on Sunday, the final training session before the tie with Citizens.

Iwobi has not featured in the Premier League since his cameo appearance against Swansea City on October 31.

The Hale End product has notched 4 goals for the Gunners youth team this term.
