The former Gunners striker has called on his countryman to become a leader at club level and acknowledge that he is deserving of such a standing
Alex Iwobi has been told by Nwankwo Kanu that he is a “star in his own right” and needs to embrace such a standing at Arsenal.
The 22-year-old is a product of a famed academy system in north London, having linked up with the Gunners as a schoolboy.
He has graduated through the ranks to make 98 senior appearances, but is yet to show his full potential on a consistent basis at club level.
