Alex Iwobi has shared his thoughts on William Troost-Ekong’s retirement from international football.
Troost-Ekong brought the cotton down on his international career on Thursday.
The 32-year-old was initially expected to lead the Super Eagles to the upcoming 2025 Africa Cup of Nations.
Iwobi expressed disappointment with the centre-back’s decision.
“It’s obviously a sad one for us because he’s a big part of our team,” Iwobi told Sporty TV.
“At the end of the day I wish him well, he’s a brother, he has helped out Nigeria, he has helped me out. I hope that the next chapter he has in his life, it goes well for him and we’ll all support him.”
Troost-Ekong spent 10 years playing for the Super Eagles.
He made 83 appearances for the three-time African champions.
