However, since Iwobi’s transfer to Everton in 2019, he has worked with six coaches. The Nigeria international has worked be Rafael Benitez, Sean Dyche, Frank Lampard, Carlo Ancelotti, Marco Silva, and Duncan Ferguson.
Of these coaches, the greatest are Ancelotti and Benitez because of their success.
