Manager of Arsenal Arsene Wenger has revealed the reason behind the exclusion of Nigerian forward Alex Iwobi from his matchday squad for tonight’s clash against Bayern Munich with the Gunners trailing 1-5 from the first leg in Munich.
Iwobi was surprisingly not listed in the matchday squad and according to the Arsenal manager Wenger, the 20 year old called in sick in the early hours of today , leaving him with no option than to leave him out of the squad.
His spot in the team has been taken by German midfielder Mesut Ozil who starts on the bench despite Wenger saying earlier that he doesn’t expect him to be in the squad as he has only trained once.
