Former Copa del Rey champions plotting Samuel Chukwueze swoop

Super Eagles forward Samuel Chukwueze is expected to leave AC Milan this summer, and a return to the Spanish LaLiga might be on the offing, Soccernet.ng reports.

Chukwueze has struggled to make a mark at AC Milan since he joined the club from Villarreal two years ago.

The Super Eagles star has failed to make an impact under three different managers at the club, causing his stock to drop significantly.

Since the turn of the year, there have been talks that Chukwueze will leave the Rossoneri, albeit he is yet to confirm it himself.

The 26-year-old star is already back at AC Milan after his summer holidays, and he has started training with his teammates and the new coach Massimiliano Allegri. But that does not mean that he will stay at the club.

Meanwhile, Chukwueze has been linked with clubs like Fulham, Villarreal, and Mallorca in recent months. But they are yet to make a move.

In a new development, per El gold digital, Real Sociedad are interested in signing Chukwueze this summer.

The two-time Copa Del Rey champions are coming off a disappointing campaign as they finished 11th in LaLiga. Now, Real Sociedad are looking to improve next season, and Chukwueze is a player that can help them.

The Super Eagles star has experience playing LaLiga football, as he spent five years at Villarreal before joining AC Milan.

On his own day, Chukwueze can be a headache for any defense line. His problem is that he is inconsistent. He can be prime Messi in one game, and return to his usual self in the very next game.

The Super Eagles star is valued at €10 million on Transfermarkt, which should be a comfortable fee for Real Sociedad.
