وفق كالتشيو ميركاتو the Nigerian winger has been in contact with Fulham for weeks, and a move is now closer than ever. Chukwueze only joined Milan in the summer of 2023 from . He is under contract until 2028, but has struggled to establish himself as a regular starter. The London club already tried to sign him in January, but Milan refused to sanction a loan with an option to buy.

Milan’s shock 2-1 defeat to newly promoted فيهم opener exposed the lack of attacking depth in Massimiliano Allegri’s side. The Rossoneri are desperate for reinforcements but need sales first to raise funds. Yunus Musah is also among the names linked with a possible exit, while Chukwueze is also among the likely outgoers. The Nigerian has made 70 appearances for Milan, scoring eight goals and providing six assists.
