Chukwueze heads for fresh start at Fulham after failing to impress at Milan

Nigerian international Chukwueze signed for Milan from La Liga side Villarreal in 2023, signing a five year deal with the Rossoneri. The winger was an important player in Spain, helping the club lift the Europa League in 2020-21 but he failed to impress in Lombardy.
