Nigerian winger Samuel Chukwueze will reportedly earn €4 million per year when he completes his move from Villarreal to AC Milan this summer.
This represents almost a 300 percent increment of the €1.1 million annual salary he reportedly earns at Villarreal, his boyhood club. This also means that Samuel Chukwueze will become one of the highest-paid players at the Italian Serie A giants according to Tutto Napoli.
Though Villarreal and AC Milan have agreed on a €28 million transfer fee, which includes €20 million fixed payment and €8 million in bonuses, Chukwueze’s transfer to AC Milan is subject to a successful medical examination.
OsunDailyNG gathered that the 24-year-old Nigeria international who has accepted a 5-year stay at AC Millan is expected to undergo his medical today, July 25.
According to Sky Sport Italia, there are only a few minor administrative tasks that need to be done in the next few hours before the Italian giants can announce his arrival.
Chukwueze’s current Villarreal contract was due to expire at the end of next season, therefore there was additional motivation to complete the deal as fast as possible. However, extra caution will be needed during the transfer process because he does not possess an EU passport due to his position as a Nigerian international.
