According to Express Sport, AC Milan is monitoring the progress of young Austrian forward Oghenetejiri Adejenughure, born in 2007. He made a name for himself in Cyprus with the Austrian U17 team during the recent European Championships in his age group. The Salzburg forward, of Nigerian descent, is considered one of the future promises for the national team, to the point where coach Ralf Rangnick has described him as a sure talent with great potential.
As it stands, Milan is not the only European club showing interest in the Nigerian-born striker. Borussia Dortmund and Manchester United have also expressed interest in the young Austrian U17 forward. The Red Devils have already made contact with the player's entourage to assess the feasibility of a move to England as early as the next transfer window.
As right-footed central forward, he has an impressive physical build (185 cm tall), allowing him to maneuver skillfully both with the ball at his feet and in the penalty area, excelling in aerial duels. He took his first steps in the world of football with the youth teams of Vienna FC, before Rapid Vienna noticed his talent and added him to their U15 team. It took Adejenughure only six months to attract the attention of the most important team in Austrian football at present: Salzburg. Step by step, the young forward born in 2007 moved up to the U16 and then the U18 team, where last season he caught the interest of Europe's top clubs. In 20 matches with the Red Bulls, the 2007-born forward scored 16 goals, averaging one every 83 minutes. An impressive average confirmed by his national team performances, where he scored 8 goals in 12 appearances.
