Super Eagles midfielder, Alex Iwobi has earned a place on the 2026 Football Black List.
The Fulham F.C. star was recognised for his impact beyond the pitch, particularly through his community-driven Project 17 initiative.
The Football Black List, endorsed by the Premier League, highlights the achievements of influential Black figures in British football, celebrating contributions both on and off the field.
It focuses on individuals of African and Caribbean heritage making meaningful strides within the sport.
Established in 2008 by Leon Mann and Rodney Hinds, the initiative continues to spotlight those inspiring future generations to pursue careers in football.
Iwobi, alongside other honourees, will be celebrated at an event in Westminster scheduled for Tuesday, April 14.
The former Arsenal F.C. midfielder is currently with the Super Eagles squad as they prepare for upcoming international friendlies against Iran and Jordan.
