As reported by Sky Sports Italia, Milan’s alternatives to Chukwueze include Arsenal’s Reiss Nelson, Watford’s Ismaila Sarr and Rennes’ Jeremy Doku.

Meanwhile, Villarreal CEO Fernando Roig Negueroles has spoken about the speculation surrounding Chukwueze, admitting that Yellow Submarines could be in danger of losing out of their most promising talents.

With the likes of Arsenal, Aston Villa, West Ham and Liverpool interested, Negueroles said on the matter: “It’s true that he’s excited to play for a big club in Europe or in the Premier League.

“If this option came up, we would sit down and negotiate it. But it will be necessary to see if any beneficial offer arrives for the three parties. In this case, no offer has yet arrived.”
