Flying Eagles midfielder turns down AC Milan offer

Flying Eagles midfielder, Victor Eletu, has reportedly turned down a contract renewal offer from Italian football giants, AC Milan, as per sources familiar with the matter, Soccernet.ng understands.

Earlier reports indicated that the talented Nigerian youngster had signed a three-year deal with the prestigious Milan-based club in late 2022.

However, a new report from TuttoMercatoWeb journalist suggests that Eletu is now eyeing a potential departure from the club.

The 18-year-old midfield prodigy played a vital role for Ladan Bosso’s boys, most notably contributing a key assist to Haliru Sarki, who secured a resounding 2-0 victory against Argentina.

Eletu’s impressive performances garnered attention from AC Milan, leading to his initial signing with the club.

Despite the earlier agreement, recent developments reveal that Eletu has declined a proposed five-year contract extension presented by the reigning 2021-22 Serie A champions.

The exact reasons behind his decision remain undisclosed, but speculations suggest that the player may be seeking new opportunities and challenges in his burgeoning career.

Reports further indicate that Eletu could explore the possibility of a transfer away from San Siro if a suitable loan solution is not found.

This decision highlights the youngster’s ambition to continue his development and gain valuable playing time at a competitive level. With several clubs likely to be interested in acquiring the services of this promising talent, the coming weeks could be crucial in determining Eletu’s next destination.

Eletu’s rejection of the contract renewal offer raises questions about AC Milan’s plans for the talented Nigerian midfielder. While the club may still hold hopes of retaining him, the player’s desire for regular first-team action may drive him towards alternative opportunities.
