Everton recruit Alex Iwobi lacks the needed quality to thrive with the very best according to former Premier League player Darren Bent.

Ex-Tottenham Hotspur and Aston Villa striker Darren Bent spoke about Alex Iwobi in a chat with Football Insider.

Alex Iwobi left Arsenal for Everton on deadline day of the Premier League transfer.

The 23-year-old has signed a five-year deal at Everton until the end of the 2023/24 season.

Everton had a £30m bid rejected for Alex Iwobi during this summer’s transfer window before the Gunners went to accept a £40m bid from the Merseysiders.

Alex Iwobi was a product of the Arsenal Academy before he made his debut for the first team in October 2015.

The Super Eagles player made the most appearances from all the Arsenal players last season to underline his importance.

He scored six goals in 52 games for Arsenal in all competitions.

In total, Alex Iwobi scored 15 goals during his time with the Arsenal first team.

Alex Iwobi will be hoping to make his debut for Everton during the upcoming Premier League clash with Watford.

The Nigerian attacker recently returned from a short holiday after an extended break stemmed from his participation at the 2019 African Cup of Nations (AFCON) tournament in Egypt.
