Samuel Chukwueze Joins Fulham From AC Milan On Transfer Deadline Day
By Sportsgister
Nigerian international Samuel Chukwueze has completed a loan transfer to Fulham from AC Milan, with an option to buy.
The 25-year-old winger joins the Premier League club on a season-long loan, with the potential for the deal to become permanent.
The deal includes an initial loan spell, with a buy option clause worth over €25-26 million, according to transfer expert Fabrizio Romano.
The option to make the move permanent is not mandatory, but Fulham can choose to activate the clause if they’re impressed with Chukwueze’s performances.
Chukwueze joined AC Milan in the summer of 2023 but struggled to find his footing in Italy, making limited appearances and scoring only 8 goals in 70 games.
Before joining Milan, Chukwueze played for Villarreal, where he showcased his speed and trickery on the wings, earning him a move to the Rossoneri.
Fulham had been interested in Chukwueze for some time, but the deal only gained momentum in the final days of the summer transfer window.
Chukwueze traveled to London on Sunday night to complete a medical without a deal being agreed upon, but the parties have since finalized the transfer.
Chukwueze’s arrival is expected to add flair, directness, and creativity to Fulham’s frontline, providing valuable European experience to the team.
