Calciomercato.com report that Chukwueze is seen as the perfect profile by the Milan management to raise the quality level on the right wing because of his pace, dribbling and his eye for goal.
There have already been details finalised regarding the terms of the Nigeria international’s contract with Milan in terms of the salary he would earn and the duration of the potential deal.
However, Chukwueze has a strong bond with Villarreal and he has no intention of forcing his hand, but has already pointed out to the LaLiga club that a possible transfer to Milan would be one he would welcome.
Villarreal do not need to sell. They have already sold Pau Torres to Aston Villa and want €30m for Chukwueze despite him having only one year left on his contract.
Milan want to start from a base of €20m and bonuses will be the key. The first official contacts between the clubs are expected in the next 24-48 hours.
