Official: Samuel Chukwuze joins Fulham on loan with option to buy

This evening, Fulham have confirmed the signing of Samuel Chukwueze on loan from AC Milan, with an option to buy. 

There has been a prolonged interest in Chukwueze from London, but it was only in the final days of the summer that things started to get lively. The Nigerian does not really have a place at Milan, so a move was given the green light.

On Sunday night, the winger travelled to London to complete a medical, without a deal being agreed. However, it seems the parties have gotten things over the line.

Chukwueze to Fulham: Done

Chukwueze, who joined the Rossoneri in the summer of 2023, leaves on loan initially. However, the London club have a buy clause within the deal, worth €30 million, per reports from deadline day.

Fulham confirmed the deal this evening, stating the following.

“The Club is delighted to confirm the signing of Samuel Chukwueze from AC Milan.

“He joins on loan for the duration of the 2025/26 season, with an option to make the move permanent.”

Considering he never really took to Serie A, and Christian Pulisic’s lift-off since moving to Italy in the same summer, getting this deal done is a good bit of business from the Diavolo. All the best, Chukwu!
