Bukayo Sakas Injury Sparks Arsenal's Interest In Nigerian Winger With 6 Super Eagles Goals

Arsenal could rival Aston Villa in a bid to secure the services of Nigerian international Samuel Chukwueze, as the AC Milan winger becomes a potential January transfer target, .

With Bukayo Saka sidelined by a long-term hamstring injury, the Gunners are exploring options to bolster their attacking depth, and Chukwueze, a 25-year-old with six international goals for Nigeria, has emerged as a strong candidate.

Reports from Italian outlet Milan Live suggest that Chukwueze's future at AC Milan is uncertain.

Since his 20 million move from Villarreal in July 2023, the winger has struggled to cement a consistent starting role at the San Siro.

With only three goals and one assist across 21 appearances this season, he has yet to surpass 1,000 minutes of playing time, prompting speculation of a potential departure.
