MN: The numbers behind Milan’s interest in Aston Villa’s Chukwuemeka

AC Milan appear to have a very serious level of interest in Aston Villa midfielder Carney Chukwuemeka and here are the numbers to explain why.

As has been explained by Milan News today, the English midfielder had something of a breakout season for both Aston Villa and the England U19 team this season.

He managed to make 14 appearances for Steven Gerrard’s side across the Premier League and the League Cup in what is a very competitive midfield with a lot of competition. The 18-year-old got one assist.

He impressed the most though when he was at the U19 European Championships with England where he was instrumental in helping the young lions win the tournament.

He played in all five of their matches and in that tournament he provided two assists and scored three times. He was definitely one of the standout players at the tournament which is why he was named in the best eleven of the tournament.
