Manchester United are one of the several Premier League clubs interested in one of Nigeria’s brightest prospects, Samuel Chukwueze.
According to 90min per the Sun, Chukwueze is courting interest from a host of English clubs, which include United, Leicester, Everton and Arsenal.
The Nigerian international has been tipped for a big career and was even linked with a move to Liverpool last January.
Chukwueze’s profile has been on the rise since he made his debut for Villarreal’s first team in the 2018/2019 season.
However, any Premier League club interested in signing him will have to pay his release clause of 100m euros after he signed a new deal last year.
