Nigerian winger Samuel Chukwueze’s much-anticipated move to Milan is nearly done as the Italian giants have successfully concluded negotiations with Villarreal and the Nigeria international is set to undergo his medicals on Tuesday.
Sky Sport Italia reports the deal is almost finalized, with only minor formalities left to resolve within hours.
The final details will be ironed out today as Chukwueze completes, leading to contract signings and official confirmation.
Sources indicate that the transfer fee amounts to a substantial €20m, accompanied by an additional €8m in performance-related bonuses. Chukwueze’s contract with Villarreal expires this season, motivating swift finalization of the deal.
A complication arises due to his Nigeria international status, as he lacks an EU passport, requiring extra attention in transfers.
The 24-year-old forward is set to sign a five-year contract with Milan worth €3.6m, strengthening their attacking prowess with Pulisic and Okafor.
Chukwueze’s arrival in Italy for medicals is expected on Tuesday, marking the final step before joining Rossoneri.
Upon a successful deal conclusion, Milan will expedite travel arrangements for his timely presence in the United States for pre-season.
Excitement grows among Milan fans, eagerly awaiting the official announcement and Chukwueze’s debut in the iconic jersey.
