Fulham Moves to Secure Permanent Deal for Chukwueze

Fulham is making moves to secure a permanent transfer for Nigerian international Samuel Chukwueze after his successful loan stint at the club. Chukwueze joined Fulham on a season-long loan from AC Milan last summer and has impressed head coach Marco Silva, who is eager to retain him long-term.

According to the Italian outlet Gazzetta dello Sport, Fulham is preparing a £24 million bid to trigger the purchase option included in Chukwueze's contract. During his loan period, Chukwueze recorded three goals and four assists across 17 league appearances.

He has two years remaining on his current contract with AC Milan, but Fulham's interest indicates a strong desire to finalize a permanent transfer deal for the skilled winger.
