Nigeria international Alex Iwobi is set to expand his career beyond football, with the Fulham midfielder announcing the upcoming release of his debut music project.
The 29-year-old revealed that his first extended play (EP), titled More To Life, will be released on 9 April.
Iwobi shared the news with fans through a post on Instagram, where he unveiled the album’s artwork alongside a full tracklist. The project will feature nine songs, marking a significant step into the music industry for the Premier League player.
According to the tracklist, the EP will include a mix of solo performances and collaborations. Two tracks will see Iwobi performing alone, while the remaining songs feature contributions from several artists, including 24am, Teniola Time, Gidi, Fido, and SPKS. The blend of collaborations suggests a diverse musical approach for the debut release.
This will not be Iwobi’s first foray into music. The midfielder has previously explored creative work in the industry, having teamed up with fellow footballer Chuba Akpom, who performs under the alias Skoli. In addition, Iwobi has worked with British rapper Ramz on a track titled Hop Out, highlighting his continued interest in music alongside his sporting commitments.
Despite his growing involvement in music, Iwobi remains an active figure in top-flight football. He continues to play a key role for Fulham in the English Premier League, contributing both goals and assists during the current campaign. So far this season, he has scored four goals and provided three assists, underlining his importance to the squad.
Iwobi’s dual pursuits reflect a broader trend of athletes exploring interests outside their primary profession. While it remains to be seen how his music will be received, the upcoming release of More To Life signals a serious commitment to developing a parallel creative career.
Fans of both football and music will be watching closely when the EP drops next month, as Iwobi looks to make an impression in a new arena while continuing to perform on the pitch.
