Super Eagles forward, Samuel Chukwueze, may chase regular playing time in Saudi Arabia if his situation at his Serie A side Milan does not improve by January.
The winger failed to dislodge American Christian Pulisic from the starting lineup in his first season at the club and his situation is yet to change despite Paulo Fonseca replacing Stefano Pioli as the club manager this term.
Despite Chukwueze’s impressive showing in pre-season, the new coach prefers Pulisic to the frustration of the Nigerian forward and reports from Italy are suggesting the former Villarreal winger could be tempted by a bigmoney move to the Middle East by January.
According to MilanNews 24, AC Milan have identified Inter’s young striker Sebastiano Esposito as a potential replacement should Chukwueze see a January exit as the best option.
A lucrative offer from Saudi Arabia may tempt the 25-year-old to make the switch, especially if his situation at Milan doesn’t improve in the coming months.
