Milan Sends Signal on Chukwueze With Surprise Inclusion

Chukwueze makes Milan’s preseason squad despite transfer talk, raising questions about his future under Allegri ahead of the club's Asia-Australia tour

Samuel Chukwueze is heading on tour with AC Milan, a move that quiets exit talk for now but hints at a second chance under Massimiliano Allegri, Isagoal can report.

According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, the Super Eagles winger was included in the Rossoneri squad for their upcoming tour in Asia and Australia despite recent links to Fulham and several La Liga clubs.

Chukwueze, 26, joined Milan from Villarreal with high hopes but has struggled for consistent game time, recording only 283 minutes in 2025 and contributing just eight goals and six assists across 69 matches.

“Allegri still wants to take a closer look before any final decisions,” a club source told La Gazzetta dello Sport.

His name on the travel list is seen as a signal that Allegri hasn’t completely ruled out keeping him, especially if no transfer materializes in the coming weeks.

Milan’s pre-season matches include Arsenal in Singapore (July 23), Liverpool in Hong Kong (July 26), and Perth Glory in Australia (July 31).

Veterans Luka Modric and Santiago Gimenez were left out due to post-tournament recovery, along with several other players facing injuries or possible exits.

New arrivals Ricci and Terracciano made the cut, as did attackers Rafael Leão, Noah Okafor, and Christian Pulisic.
