With just hours left in the transfer window, Fulham have made a last-minute approach to sign AC Milan winger Samuel Chukwueze. Renowned transfer expert Fabrizio Romano confirmed the ongoing negotiations between both clubs, adding to the excitement and tension of deadline day.

If the deal materializes, Chukwueze will reunite with his Super Eagles teammates, Alex Iwobi and Calvin Bassey, giving Fulham a strong Nigerian presence in their squad.

A Much-Needed Fresh Start?

Chukwueze’s time at AC Milan has been underwhelming so far. Since arriving from Villarreal, the Nigerian winger has struggled for game time and hasn’t lived up to expectations under manager Sergio Conceição. His most recent appearance in Milan’s draw against Inter Milan only added to the criticism, with some blaming him for allowing Inter’s late equalizer.

For Fulham, this could be a low-risk, high-reward signing. The club is currently looking for more attacking firepower, and Chukwueze’s speed, dribbling, and flair could add a new dimension to their frontline. However, the question remains: Will he be able to adapt quickly to the Premier League’s intensity?

Will AC Milan Let Him Go?

Milan’s decision to sign Noah Okafor from Napoli might indicate that they are open to offloading Chukwueze. But given the limited time left in the window, securing a deal might be difficult.

For Fulham, the move makes sense—they get a talented player who, if given the right opportunities, could rediscover his Villarreal form and become a key asset. But for Milan, letting go of a player so soon after signing him could be seen as a rushed decision.

Final Thoughts: A Good Fit or a Deadline Panic?

If Fulham pulls this off, it could be a huge boost for their squad. Chukwueze’s talent is undeniable, and a change of environment might be exactly what he needs. However, last-minute signings often come with risks, and if Chukwueze struggles to adapt, it could turn out to be another failed transfer experiment.

With the clock ticking, Fulham fans will be hoping this deal gets over the line. If Chukwueze can find his rhythm, he could become one of the most exciting mid-season signings in the Premier League.
