WHAT HAPPENED?
Not content with being a Premier League footballer, Iwobi is also pursuing a career in the music industry. The former Arsenal midfielder released his debut single earlier this year and now has a new offering under the name ’17.’ Iwobi’s new track ‘What’s Luv?’ is in collaboration with SPKS and MBrown and follows on from his first single ‘Don’t Shoot’ which has been streamed almost 60,000 times on Spotify.

THE BIGGER PICTURE
Iwobi has made over 250 Premier League appearances during his career, enjoying spells with Arsenal, Everton and Fulham. However, he’s now continued his foray into the music world with a new single and has readily admitted that his other passion is also a way of switching off from the demands of top-flight football.

WHAT IWOBI SAID
Iwobi said: “Music has always been a passion of mine, and a way for me to express myself away from football. Music is a great tool, and I’ve always used it as a productive way to share how I feel. Historically no Premier League player has brought out music with their name and face attached to it, but I like to be different and make a difference. Growing up in an area of London that is challenging for some people, I know how hard it can be and I’m grateful to have a platform to try and make a difference. Alongside the work we do in the community, I hope that my music is another way of proving that young people do not have to feel they have to fit in just one box. I want them to be encouraged to achieve their dreams, to put their focus into positive things. Creating music doesn’t take anything away from my football, it helps me switch off.”
