Samuel Chukwueze Linked With Transfer To Arsenal Despite West Ham’s Interest

Nigerian winger Samuel Chukwueze has reportedly emerged on the radar of English Premier League side Arsenal, according to reports.

The 21-year-old has been proving to be one of the best attackers in Spain since joining Villarreal and hopefully Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta is thinking for a raid on the La Liga giants.

He has also been linked with a move to West Ham because of his performance at the Yellow Submarine’s attack.

Chukwueze, who has two-years- remaining on his contract, joined Villarreal in 2017 and has been a big part of the team ever since.

According to Spanish publication, Fichajes, whoever who want to get the attackers signature will fork the region of €50m.

Chukwueze has so far featured in 12 La Liga matches this campaign with four goals and three assists to his name.

His latest goal came on Sunday where his excellent strike broke the deadlock for Villarreal in their highly-anticipated clash against title-chasing Barcelona at the Estadio de la Ceramica.

However, it was not enough to save Villarreal from falling to a 1-2 defeat as Antoine Griezmann’s brace turned the tie around for Ronald Koeman’s men.

Chukwueze is a right-winger that likes to drift inside onto his favoured left foot and he can glide past opponents with electric pace.

He will be expected to play a key role when his side takes on Arsenal in the Europa League game on May 29.
