Fulham Close In on Samuel Chukwueze Transfer From AC Milan
Premier League side Fulham FC are making significant progress in their efforts to sign Super Eagles winger Samuel Chukwueze from AC Milan, according to multiple reports.
Transfer guru Fabrizio Romano revealed that Fulham are in advanced talks with the Italian giants to secure the Nigerian international before the summer transfer window closes. The club is reportedly negotiating a €25 million package for the former Villarreal star.

“Negotiations underway to get both right and left wingers before the window closes.”
A Fresh Start in the Premier League?
Chukwueze joined AC Milan in 2023 after impressing in La Liga with Villarreal, but his time in Serie A has been underwhelming. He has managed just eight goals in 69 appearances across all competitions, with only four goals in 51 Serie A matches.
Despite his struggles in Italy, Chukwueze remains a highly regarded talent known for his explosive pace, dribbling skills, and ability to stretch defenses from the wing.
Fulham’s Transfer Ambitions
Fulham are clearly looking to bolster their attack, with moves underway for two wide players – Chukwueze on the right and Kevin Kelsy from Shakhtar Donetsk on the left. Reports suggest Fulham are willing to spend over €65 million combined on both deals.
If the Chukwueze deal goes through, it would mark a significant coup for the Cottagers, who are aiming to strengthen their squad after a mid-table finish last season. The Nigerian would join fellow Super Eagles star Alex Iwobi, creating a potentially exciting Nigerian duo at Craven Cottage.
With the clock ticking on the transfer window, all eyes will be on Fulham and AC Milan as final details are sorted. Chukwueze, still just 25, could be set for a much-needed fresh start in the English top flight.
