Everton manager, Sean Dyche has admitted he never wanted Alex Iwobi to leave the Goodison Park.
Iwobi spent four years at Everton following his arrival from Arsenal for around £28m in 2019.
After initially struggling to make an impact at the club, the versatile midfielder became a favourite among the Toffees faithful.
The Nigerian was named Players’ Player of the Season in his final campaign at the club.
Iwobi departed Everton for Fulham last summer.
The 28-year-old will return to the Merseyside with Fulham on Saturday (today).
“It was a very good deal for the club. I thought he was an excellent servant certainly in my time here, enjoyed having him around the place,” Dyche was quoted by Liverpool World.
” He was a joy to work with, a very good player in my opinion. Not one I wanted to lose but needs must be met at that time. It was a good fee for a good player.”
