Arsenal midfielder Alex Iwobi has signed a new long-term deal with the club.

The 22-year-old, who broke into the first team in 2015, extends his 13-year stay with the outfit after joining the North London outfit at the age of nine.

Speaking to Arsenal Player, Iwobi hailed the "amazing feeling" after signing the extension.

"It's always been my childhood dream to represent Arsenal," the Nigeria international said. "To get an extended contract is an amazing feeling and I hope I'm doing the Arsenal family proud, as well as my family.

"The first kit that I had was Arsenal and long may I continue to represent them. I always realise that I have to be representing the team and giving 100 per cent at all times. It's not just myself or my family I'm representing, I also represent the people and the younger generation as well."

Arsenal head coach Unai Emery added: "I'm very pleased Alex has signed a new contract with us. He is a great example of a player who can succeed from the Academy through hard work and I look forward to working with him and our other talented young players in the squad."

Iwobi, who scored three goals in 26 Premier League games last season, also featured at this summer's World Cup.
