Alex Iwobi will miss Fulham’s trip to Arsenal, according to manager, Marco Silva.

The Nigeria international is currently sidelined with a hamstring injury.

Iwobi sustained the injury during Fulham’s 0-0 draw against Brentford two weeks ago.

The versatile midfielder missed the Whites’ 1-0 victory over Aston Villa at the Craven Cottage last weekend.

Silva confirmed Iwobi is not available to face his former club.

“Alex (Iwobi) is out still, plus Kevin,” Silva told a press conference ahead of the London derby with Arsenal.

The 29-year-old has registered four goals and three assists in 27 league appearances for the Whites this season.
