CorSport: Villarreal send a message to Milan over Chukwueze after €25m bid

AC Milan have been told that they must show up with the right amount of money if they are to sign Samuel Chukwueze from Villarreal.

This morning’s edition of Corriere dello Sport (via PianetaMilan) writes how Chukwueze is a concrete target for the right wing role after a season in which he amassed 13 goals and 11 assists in 50 appearances across all competitions.

Villarreal want more than €30m to sell the Nigeria international, whereas Milan’s most recent offer was worth €25m and that was at least a useful bid to begin the negotiations.

More is needed to convince the LaLiga side though. Their president Fernando Roig Alonso is reluctant to let a third star leave after Nicolas Jackson and Pau Torres, sold respectively to Chelsea and Aston Villa.

In the meantime, he commented on Milan’s interest in Chukwueze with some humour which drew a mixed reaction.

“I don’t know if Milan are interested in the player. But if the interest is the same as when they came for Mateo Musacchio, with Dr. Adriano Galliani at the help, and they said they had no money, then let’s eat fideuà [typical dish of the Valencian community] and go home,” he said.

It is a clear message for Milan: Villarreal want the right price for Chukwueze, without granting discounts. However, Milan are leveraging the fact that the player wants to join and his deal runs out in June 2024.

  1. Lets just wait till january 2024 and have pre contract with samuel . Paying 30-40m euro for player that only have 1 years contract left make villarreal laugh

    1. im quite confident Villarreal are just putting on an act right now to test If they can pull as much money out of Milan as possible, expecting them to cave in soon

    2. I guess when you are a Spanish club in La Lega the fans need to be satisfied first and even though you have JOKER in Roig conducting the show in a club struggling under him he still has time taking pot shots at another club much more successful than his ?????

      Advice should be given to this Roig take a deal or let him go on a FREE…. simple

  2. This is the only player that I think will strengthen our team, among those who have been linked this summer. Those few millions wille worth it, if it secures CL for us next season…

  3. How are they discovering this now? When negotiations should have kicked off long again and we’d know if to focus on other targets.. the unnecessary time wasted peddling news instead of negotiations is uncalled for. Kamada isn’t going to wait forever

  4. Postpone talks till the last week of the mercato. That should push Villareal into submission. That’s provided no other offers arrive which is highly unlikely. But 30mil + for one year left us madness. He is not a game changer as yet to warrant that fee.

  5. It is funny to see clowns in this comment section saying ‘leave it and sign him 2024 for free’ 🤣🤣🤣 Do you guys think that is too easy? And what happened with Marcus Thuram? Was that too easy? What happens if some stronger team shows up with more cash to him next year? Do you expect him to say ‘No I am dying for Milan’? You all are either joke or living in fantasy world.

    1. So what are you suggest ? Paying over price villarreal 40m euro ? You know there is no club are willing to pay villarreal that amount right? Of course that will be not easy to sign him free transfer in 2024 , but that worth to try rather than pay 40m euro to that president that say: go eat our tradiotional food and after that go home if dont have money

  6. Milan better make it snappy in getting this serious winger. Come on ,just pay the excess and get him asap. I wonder why no one else is bidding for him. This guy can be sold for more in the next three years. He is worth what Villa ask for. I bet you,if we delay we won’t get him for free. Milan Management are funny. You wan to get such a talent for only 25m ,in this current window. Then better stick with Messias and Co.

  7. Ok, now in light of this we can forget about Chukeweze and sign Kamada who we made a verbal agreement with on a free transfer. Maybe we can re-visit Chukeweze in January after signing Kamada and having him apply for an Italian passport!
