AC Milan star Samuel Chukwueze could make a sensational return to La Liga, with Sevilla reportedly keen on signing the former Villarreal winger in the January transfer window.

Speculation about Chukwueze’s future has intensified in recent months following his challenging start at AC Milan. The Super Eagles star joined the Rossoneri in the summer of 2023 with high expectations, having impressed during his La Liga stint with Villarreal, where he contributed 31 goals and 37 assists in 207 appearances.

However, the 25-year-old Nigerian winger has struggled to find his footing in Serie A, with his playing time at Milan falling short of expectations. Despite his proven quality and reputation for pace and creativity, Chukwueze has only managed seven goals and four assists in 56 appearances since arriving at the club.

AC Milan is reportedly open to the idea of a loan move for Chukwueze to help him regain form and confidence in a competitive environment. Several European clubs are said to be monitoring the situation, with Sevilla FC emerging as a leading contender.

The Andalusian club, known for its astute transfer dealings, sees Chukwueze as a dynamic addition to bolster their attack for the remainder of the La Liga campaign. His ability to play on the wing and in central attacking roles adds versatility, making him an attractive prospect for Sevilla’s tactical setup.

A loan deal could prove mutually beneficial: Chukwueze would have the chance to rediscover his rhythm and develop further, while Sevilla would gain a talented winger capable of making an immediate impact.

With negotiations reportedly progressing, all signs point to a potential reunion between Chukwueze and La Liga, with Sevilla FC poised to make the Nigerian their next reinforcement.
