Scouting Report & Player Insights
Samuel Chukwueze is a Nigerian right winger known for his sharp acceleration and close control, cutting in from the right to drive at defenders and shoot with his right foot. He built his reputation at Villarreal before a move to AC Milan in 2023 that never fully clicked, and he has since joined Fulham in the Premier League looking to rediscover the electric one-on-one form that made him a standout in La Liga. His game is built around individual quality on the ball rather than defensive graft or aerial presence.
Broke through at Villarreal and was part of the squad that won the 2020-21 Europa League.
Moved to AC Milan in 2023 but struggled for consistent playing time and form in Serie A.
Regular member of the Nigeria national team setup.
