He added that he watches Iwobi carefully anytime the Fulham of England dazzler is playing for Nigeria or his club, because he plays the same role with the former Arsenal star.
Rasheed also thanked his coach at Heart Of Lion Football Academy, Azeez Azeez, for expertly moulding his football development and one of the teachers at his school for encouraging him.
The attacking midfielder added, “I want to score like Ronaldo and pass the way Iwobi does; but I also want to be better than both of them.
“I love the way my coach is training me so that I can become a great player and how one of my teachers, Mr Salami, always encourages me.
“They make me believe in myself, and that’s why I have faith that I will play in the future for Barcelona of Spain. That’s the club that I support, and I wish to play for them when I become a professional “
