In La Gazzetta dello Sport in this morning's print edition, there is space dedicated to Samuel Chukwueze who will have a great opportunity today in AC Milan's match against Lecce. He will start from the first minute as he is set to replace Christian Pulisic who is out due a physical issue.
The Nigerian right-winger only started three times this season, and all have not provided great indications in favour of the former Villarreal player who is still without goals, assists, or significant dribbling, which are the three reasons Milan brought him to Stefano Pioli's side this summer.
Chukwueze's start to life in AC Milan not perfect, but he has to start showing his qualities now...
An unfortunate muscle injury with the national team has not helped him either, but today it finally leaves him alone, allowing Chukwueze to skip the next commitments with Nigeria and regain the right condition at Milanello. Stefano Pioli hopes to finally see all the potential of the most expensive player in the Rossoneri market.
The positive aspect is that, despite the difficulties of these first months, in training, Chukwueze shows promising signs and a lot of serenity, giving hope for the rest of the season.
