Fulham Close to Signing Samuel Chukwueze from AC Milan
Written by Alonge Akinlolu on 31 — 08
Fulham are on the verge of completing a deal for Nigerian winger Samuel Chukwueze, with negotiations at an advanced stage between the Premier League club and AC Milan.
According to multiple reports, the agreement is structured as a loan with an obligation to buy, with the total package expected to be worth around €24–25 million. The deal includes a loan fee and a mandatory purchase clause that will be triggered under agreed conditions.
Sources in England confirm that Fulham have settled on a base fee of €22 million plus €2 million in add-ons, while other outlets suggest the final figure could rise closer to €25 million.
Negotiations were briefly paused as AC Milan considered their attacking options for the Serie A clash against Lecce, with Chukwueze among the few available forwards. However, talks are expected to resume quickly, and unless there is a late twist, the 25 year old winger will be unveiled as a Fulham player before the transfer deadline.
Chukwueze joined AC Milan from Villarreal in the summer of 2023 but has struggled to secure a consistent starting role. His move to Fulham would offer him a fresh start in the Premier League and provide Marco Silva’s side with additional attacking firepower.
