AC Milan moves to secure Chukwueze

AC Milan are preparing to open negotiations regarding the contract extension of their Nigerian winger Samuel Chukwueze, in a move that reflects the club's desire to keep the player as part of Portuguese coach Ruben Amorim's project in the coming years, according to transfer market expert Nicolo Schira.

This move comes after Samuel Chukwueze has been given a new opportunity at AC Milan with the arrival of Amorim, after the player was close to leaving during the previous period.

The Portuguese coach has confirmed his commitment to the player since the start of the season, pointing out the team's need for players capable of excelling in individual confrontations.

Samuel Chukwueze has shown a clear response to his coach's confidence, having previously spoken about his happiness at returning to AC Milan. He confirmed that Amorim has given him a new opportunity and great trust, and that he is required to take advantage of it and not waste it.

According to Shira, the next step is to begin discussions about a potential contract extension for the player, indicating that AC Milan now sees Chukwueze as part of Amorim's project, after his situation within the team has changed compared to last season.
