There is this friend of mine who is a Manchester United fan but loves to watch Arsenal matches as well (though with a condition). You know why? I'll tell you.

This dude anytime we are together before any Arsenal game would say: "I hope Iwobi would be in the lineup. If I check the lineup before kick-off and his name is not there, I won't watch it.

Let me use this medium to inform my friend and any other who falls under this category that they can now begin watching Arsenal games once again.

Alex Iwobi has recovered fully from an illness which kept him out of the Gunners' match against Cardiff City and also made him miss the Africa Cup of Nations clash of Nigeria against Seychelles on Saturday.

The 22-year old nephew of the legendary Austin Jay Jay Okocha has now announced his return to action via his Instagram account.

He posted: "Haaaa 17’s Back Yaa Digg Always Nice When Your Team Wins In Training 💪🏽 #AllezLeBlanc ⚪️
