Fulham FC are exploring a permanent move for Nigeria international Samuel Chukwueze following his loan spell at Craven Cottage, with negotiations underway to secure a reduced transfer fee from AC Milan.
The 27-year-old spent the past season on loan in West London, where he showed flashes of the attacking quality that made him one of the most sought-after wingers during his time in Spain. Fulham’s coaching staff are understood to be keen on retaining his services, viewing him as a player capable of adding depth and dynamism to their forward line.
However, discussions between the two clubs are centered on the financial terms of a potential deal. Fulham are reportedly unwilling to meet Milan’s initial valuation and are instead pushing for a more favorable fee as they look to balance ambition with financial prudence.
Chukwueze’s pace, directness, and ability to operate across the frontline made him a useful asset during his loan stint, even as he adapted to the physical demands of the Premier League. His experience at international level with Nigeria further enhances his appeal as Fulham seek to build a competitive squad ahead of the new season.
For AC Milan, a permanent transfer could allow the Serie A side to reshape their squad, while Fulham remain hopeful that ongoing negotiations will lead to an agreement that satisfies all parties.
