The president of Villarreal, Fernando Roig, did not give much away regarding whether Milan are advancing in talks over Chukwueze during a press conference earlier today.
However, he did take the opportunity to have a bit of a humorous dig at Milan’s expense, recalling a time when Adriano Galliani expressed a desire to sign Mateo Musacchio but revealed Milan didn’t have much money (he eventually signed).
According to The Athletic, Milan have made a bid for Chukwueze which is a package worth up to €25m. The 24-year-old wants to leave Villarreal – where he has a deal running out in 2024 – and has agreed personal terms with the Rossoneri.
Chukwueze seems an ideal fit for Milan get that he is a left-footed right winger, and he would arrive after a season in which he scored 13 goals and added 11 assists in 50 appearances.
