Fulham is on the verge of signing AC Milan winger Samuel Chukwueze for €25 million, including bonuses. The Nigerian international is expected to undergo medical tests in London ahead of the transfer.
Fulham is close to completing a deal worth €25 million to sign Samuel Chukwueze from AC Milan. The Nigerian winger is expected to undergo medical tests in London as the transfer nears completion. Chukwueze has struggled to find his rhythm since joining Milan from Villarreal in 2023, despite being an important player for the Spanish club.
During his time at Villarreal, Chukwueze played a crucial role in helping the club lift the Europa League in 2020-21. However, he has failed to impress in Lombardy, scoring just eight goals in 69 appearances for Milan. The winger’s move to Fulham would mark a fresh start for him in the Premier League.
Fulham had previously attempted to sign Chukwueze in January, but their loan proposal was rejected by Milan. This summer, the London club is pushing harder to secure the winger’s signature, viewing him as a key target before the transfer window closes.
The potential deal would not only benefit Chukwueze but also strengthen Fulham’s attacking options. AC Milan plans to reinvest funds from Chukwueze’s sale to strengthen their squad after a poor start to the season.
Negotiations between Fulham and Milan have advanced significantly, with the clubs discussing a potential permanent transfer or loan deal with an option to buy. Chukwueze’s future at Fulham would provide him with regular first-team football, crucial for maintaining his international prospects ahead of major tournaments.
