Former Super Eagles captain, Joseph Yobo, has backed Alex Iwobi to surpass 130 appearances for the Nigerian national team.
Iwobi became only the fourth Nigerian player to reach 100 international caps when he featured for the Super Eagles in a friendly against Portugal in June.
The Fulham midfielder has continued to establish himself as a key player for Nigeria since making his international debut.
He joined Yobo, Vincent Enyeama and Ahmed Musa as the only Nigerian centurions.
Musa currently holds the appearance record with 110 caps.
“I wouldn’t be surprised to see Alex getting to 130 or 130-plus because he’s still very active,” Yobo, who was Nigeria’s first centurion, told ESPN.
“He’s still performing at the highest level. You always pray and hope you don’t get injured because these things can derail you.”
