The chase for Nigeria international Samuel Chukwueze continues to gain more momentum as English Premier League side West Ham
The No.11 was lethal in one-on-one situations throughout the campaign.
Among players in Europe’s top five leagues, only Vinicius Junior, Lionel Messi, Jeremy Doku and Lee Kang-In completed more take-ons than the Nigerian, and midfield maestro Dani Parejo was the sole player in Villarreal’s squad to create more chances than Chukwueze. However, keeping one of their prized assets would be an extremely difficult task for the Yellow Submarines as the player’s current deal expires in 2024.
With his contract set to expire, there is a small chance that Chukwueze, who reportedly earns €36,154 weekly, will remain with the Estadi de la Ceràmica outfits. Agreeing to a new deal at La Ceramica would see Chukwueze’s value skyrocket — and clubs may be willing to cough up the cash if his performance levels do not drop in 2023/24.All rights reserved.
