Former English Premier League Champions Arsenal are set to offer AC Milan Jakub Kiwior in exchange for Super Eagles forward Samuel Chukwueze, Soccernet.ng reports.
Chukwueze has failed to make a significant impression at AC Milan since his €21.1 million transfer from Villareal last year.
Last season, the 25-year-old forward registered three goals and three assists in 33 appearances across all competitions. This season, he has gotten three goals and one assist in 21 appearances, but most of them have been off the bench.
The Nigerian has never been short of suitors, and due to his struggle for game time, there has been a lot of talk about a possible exit for Chukwueze.
Now, according to Team Talk, Chukwueze could get a breakthrough soon. This is as Arsenal want to offer AC Milan Kiwior in exchange for the Nigerian’s services.
Kiwior, who is Polish has struggled for game time this season, with just eight Premier League appearances under his belt. The 24-year-old defender is not considered as an important player at the Emirates and could be allowed to leave.
Arsenal are long-time admirers of Chukwueze, as they have been linked with the Super Eagles star previously. Now, they will be desperate to get the transfer sorted due to the recent injuries to Raheem Sterling and their star man Bukayo Saka.
