Alex Iwobi Vows Fulham Will Fight Until the End of the Season Despite Recent Slump

Nigerian midfielder Alex Iwobi insists Fulham will keep fighting through the final stages of the 2025-2026 campaign despite a recent drop in form.

The London club has struggled for consistency in recent weeks. Fulham have suffered four defeats in their last six Premier League matches since the start of February, leaving them in tenth place on the table.

Their woes deepened recently when they were eliminated from the FA Cup following a 1-0 loss to Championship side Southampton.

Despite the collective struggles under manager Marco Silva, Iwobi has enjoyed strong personal form. He has registered two goals and an assist in his last three league appearances. Speaking to fans via his YouTube vlog, the midfielder stressed the need to maintain a positive mindset.

“Just continue to be positive, continue to be vibrant. I always try to stay positive no matter what,” Iwobi said. “Results have not been going our way, but we’ll keep our heads up and we’ll keep fighting. We’ll keep going until the season is done, giving 100 per cent.”

The Cottagers face a challenging run of fixtures before the first international break of 2026. Their upcoming schedule includes league matches against Burnley and Nottingham Forest. The Forest clash will see Iwobi face off against his national teammate Ola Aina.

During his vlog, Iwobi also discussed his growing presence as a content creator. He revealed that his coaches at both the club and international levels fully support his behind the scenes videos.

“My managers don’t mind what I do on social media as long as it’s positive,” he explained. “They know it’s a way for me to show my personality and connect with supporters. All my managers encourage it, as long as I’m doing my job on the field.”

Iwobi noted that Super Eagles head coach Eric Chelle is among those who enjoy the digital content.

“Coach Chelle actually likes the vlogs that I post as well,” he added.

The midfielder believes his videos help bridge the gap between players and supporters.

“It allows fans to see a different side of players and what happens behind the scenes,” he said.

However, he maintained that football remains his primary focus. “At the end of the day, the most important thing is delivering on the pitch.”
