Arsenal star Alex Iwobi beats Hazard, Sane to set new Premier League record

Super Eagles star Alex Iwobi is no doubt one of the most developed stars in the Premier League this campaign.

The 22-year-old has netted twice and assisted four other goals in the EPL this season as the Gunners seek to qualify for Champions League next term.

However, despite not ranking on the top scorers chart so far this term, the Nigeria international is topping another list.

Iwobi, according to SunSport, has the highest number of nutmegs completed in the English topflight this season.

He has completed five nutmegs - one more than Eden Hazard of Chelsea and Man City's Leroy Sane who have four each.

The 22-year-old is tied on the same number with West Ham United's in-form winger Felipe Anderson.

Players like Manchester United's Ashley Young, Newcastle's Ayoze Perez and Liverpool's Roberto Firmino have all completed three nutmegs each.

It's fair to say football fans love to see a lovely nutmeg - this was evident when Newcastle attacker Christian Atsu did it to Manchester United star Paul Pogba this week.
