Everton star Onana praises ‘great teammate’ Iwobi

Amadou Onana, Alex Iwobi’s Everton colleague, has praised the Super Eagles player.

Onana joined Everton in the summer from Ligue 1 team Lille.

In the team’s midfield, the Frenchman has forged a strong partnership with Iwobi and Senegal’s Idrissa Gueye.

“In terms of the midfield three [alongside Idrissa Gana Gueye and Alex Iwobi], I feel it worked,” Onana told Sky Sports.

“I feel quite comfortable playing with Gana and Alex as they’re amazing players and they make it quite easy for me.”

This season, the former Arsenal player has made 15 league appearances for the Merseysiders, scoring once and assisting five times.
