The future of Super Eagles winger Samuel Chukwueze seems to have been sorted out after his Spanish LaLiga team, Villarreal left him out of their squad for Saturday’s pre-season friendly against German side Hannover 96, reports BSNSports.com.ng.
Villarreal’s preseason preparations have been underway with Chukwueze featuring in their last friendly, but he did not take any part in their game against the Bundesliga outfit Saturday amid rumours he is close to joining Italian Serie A top guns AC Milan.
Di Marzio is reporting that Milan are confident of closing the deal for Chukwueze, who is ‘getting closer and closer’ to joining the Rossoneri and the deal could close between Monday and Tuesday.
The latest idea from Giorgio Furlani and Geoffrey Moncada is to include Matteo Gabbia in the negotiation to lower the amount requested by the Spanish club (about €20m, bonuses to be defined).
