All work and no play, makes Jack a dull boy; but for Arsenal star, Alex Iwobi , he works hard on the pitch and plays so hard outside the pitch with his girlfriend, Clarisse Juliette.
Recently, the Nigerian enjoys a night out near Tower Bridge with his girlfriend, after the club’s Premier League victory over Sunderland.
The Super Eagles’ star has plenty to smile about on the pitch this season – he has a regular starting place in an Arsenal side, second in the Premier League and top of their Champions’ League group. He is also doing well with his country’s national team.
But he has a lot to be pleased with off the pitch too, if his girlfriend’s Instagram picture s are anything to go by. Ms Juliette captioned the picture, which shows her and Iwobi with an iconic London landmark in the background: ‘Tower Bridge tonight, with my favourite man’. It is not the first time the young couple have appeared loved up in personal snaps on her profile. Earlier this month, Iwobi and Juliette posed for the camera again, looking particularly photogenic. This picture was captioned: ‘When you and your bae don’t need filter, just the flash.’ While Iwobi looks relaxed alongside his partner, Arsenal manager, Arsene Wenger, wants the young Nigerian to show the same level of composure on the pitch in order to score more goals. Wenger said last week before the Sunderland game: “You can see that he is not a typical winger. I think he can play in the No 10 role. He turns the game forward, he passes the ball through the lines very well, and he has a final ball in him. “I think he has it all in the locker to pass and give the final ball – what you want from him now is the finishing, and that’s still a little part that is missing. He is too nervous at the moment, when he has the possibility to finish.”
