Chukwueze’s Transfer To Fulham Gathers Momentum As Milan Sanction Move

Samuel Chukwueze’s potential move to Fulham appears to be gathering momentum as seven-time UEFA Champions League winners, AC Milan, has sanctioned the move.

The 25-year-old winger was linked with a move to the Cottagers during the January transfer window, with a move nearly getting over the line, but for a late entry into the transfer market.

With the Nigerian struggling for playing time, Milan are looking to ship him off in the summer and are trying to negotiate a move away from the San Siro for Chukwueze.

According to Sports Witness, Marco Silva’s side are still very interested in the former Villareal winger who is currently valued between €12m and €15m right now, €12m less than Milan spent to secure Chukwueze’s services from the Yellow Submarines last season.

However, Fulham face stiff competition as the Super Eagles winger also has offers in Spain, with Real Betis and Sevilla keen on his services, but it is believed Fulham have the upper hand in the transfer situation.

If the deal materialises, Chukwueze will have the luxury of featuring in Europe (an opportunity Milan might not afford next season), and he’ll be a squad player at least as his skills and pace are what makes wingers thrive in the English Premier League.

Additionally, Fulham houses two Super Eagles in Alex Iwobi and Calvin Bassey, and Chukwueze will feel right at home at the Craven Cottage, settling in nicely with the Nigerian Internationals.
