He also has one goal in three EFL Cup games while the Toffees sit seventh on the EPL log with 40 points after games. They have a meeting with Southampton at Goodison Park on March 1.
His current deal with the Merseyside outfit will expire in the summer of 2024 and with an improved display, he could bag an extension or even seal a deal with a bigger club.
The attacker will most likely be among the players Gernot Rohr will most likely invite for the remaining AFCON 2022 qualifiers against Benin and Lesotho this month.
Nigeria currently sit at the summit of their group with eight points after four matches and they must ensure they win their remaining two games or risk not qualifying for the championship.
Legit.ng earlier reported that Super Eagles forward Alex Iwobi who is currently playing for Premier League giants Everton has stated emphatically that he is not regretting the decision he made to leave Arsenal last two years.
The attacker was born in Lagos before his parents moved to England where he started his football career at the Arsenal youth team and was monitored by former coach Arsene Wenger.
At the age of 14, Alex Iwobi was almost released by the Gunners due to unimpressive performances from the Nigerian, but the London-based team gave him another chance and he made use of it.
