The Nigerian international arrived in Milan on Wednesday and successfully underwent his medicals at the prestigious La Madonnina Clinic, ahead of his anticipated move to the seven-time European champions.
In a revealing moment, the electrifying winger disclosed his chosen squad number for the upcoming season. Chukwueze wrote the number “21” on a shoe he received from a passionate Milan fan, hinting at his jersey selection.
