Alex Iwobi has recalled a ‘scary’ incident in which he was followed by an Arsenal fan after a game.

The young Arsenal player, who has forged himself a regular role in Arsene Wenger’s side this season thanks to some top performances, has been quick to learn some of the trappings of his growing status.

Speaking to the Arsenal weekly podcast, Iwobi said he had experienced ‘a lot of crazy things’ relating to fans, before telling of the time he was trailed in his car.

‘I remember the last home game we played. For 15 minutes there was one fan following me and I was getting a bit scared,’ said the Nigeria international.
