After pledging his national allegiance to Nigeria, Alex Iwobi has gone ahead to play 59 matches for the three-time African Champions.

The 26-year-old is likely to win his 60th cap for Nigeria against Algeria on Tuesday, September 27.

The former English youth international made his Super Eagles debut in October 2015 when he came on as a 57th-minute substitute for Ahmed Musa in Nigeria's 2-0 defeat to DR Congo in a friendly.

The in-form Everton star has scored 10 goals for his country in 59 matches.
