The market of the Milan will follow the strategy of recent years, with some experienced names and several young players to enhance. It belongs to this second category Carney Chukwuemekaa boy with undoubted qualities coming off a season with more shadows than lights at Chelsea. Maybe, with a change of scenery, he can return to show those qualities that have led many insiders to compare him to none other than Paul Pogba.
In England between light and shadow
Born in Austria to a Nigerian family, he moved to England at a very young age and settled in the city of NorthamptonHe began his career with the local club, before moving to theAston Villa. After 4 years in the Villans Academy, with the award as the best player of the Academy in the 2020/21 season of his first appearances in the first team, in the following season he enters more consistently in the rotations of the manager Steven Gerrard collecting 12 appearances in the Premier League and 2 in the EFL Cup. Enough to turn the lights on him and ignite the summer transfer market.
After refusing to renew his contract with Aston Villa, he accepts the advances of Chelsea who took him for just over 23 million euros. Among the suitors there was also Milan, a club that could however be in his destiny. In London he struggles, collecting very little satisfaction in the last two seasons. Only 2 goals to his name, against West Ham in the Premier and against Leicester in the FA Cup. He is therefore considering changing teams: Milan has returned to make an advance, but there is a distance on the modalities of the negotiation (Chelsea would like to sell him, the Rossoneri are leaning towards a loan).
The role of Chukwuemeka
He can certainly be an interesting reinforcement for Fonseca’s chessboard. Central midfielder with good attacking skills, he can also be used as an attacking midfielder in a 4-2-3-1. Gifted with a good shot from medium distance, he gives his best in the finishing phase. A graft that, therefore, can bring geometry, physicality and versatility to the Rossoneri midfield.
