The defender is no longer in the starting lineup for Merseyside and has only played once in the Premier League this year, but he still updates his Instagram page with pictures of himself working out hard.

During the international break, Iwobi shared a photo of himself running on the training field, and he couldn’t resist leaving a witty remark on his post.
