Nigerian international Alex Iwobi has named Arsenal legend Thierry Henry as his all-time favourite Arsenal FC player.
The 21-year-old forward also revealed that legendary French striker Henry is still his advisor.
“Thierry Henry, definitely,” Iwobi told FourFourTwo.
“The goals he got, the player he was – and he is still advising me today.”
The Arsenal academy went on to back Chuba Akpom, who is looking to break into the English Premier League club's first team.
“I don’t know who to expect because you never know at this time who will come through.
“But I would say Chuba Akpom," the Lagos-born player added.
Henry, 40, is widely regarded to be Arsenal's greatest player of all-time having scored 228 goals in all competitions for the Gunners.
