Samuel Chukwueze, the Nigerian winger for AC Milan, has revealed that financial incentives were not his primary concern when he turned down a lucrative transfer offer from the Saudi Pro League last summer. Despite significant interest and a substantial offer from Saudi clubs, Chukwueze chose to join AC Milan instead, prioritizing his career development and ambitions in European football.
In an interview with Football Italia, Chukwueze emphasized his commitment to Milan and his desire to succeed in Europe. He acknowledged the financial appeal of the Saudi offer but stated that his focus was on playing for a major European club. Chukwueze, who scored once in 24 league appearances for Milan last season, is expected to improve his performance in the upcoming season, given his strong pre-season form.
