Highly rated Nigeria youth international Samuel Chukwueze has officially signed professional terms with Spanish La-Liga side Villarreal as first reported by this football portal.
Chukwueze trained with the youth team of the La-Liga side early this year but couldn’t sign professional terms as he wasn’t up to the age of 18 pegged by FIFA as the age to make international transfer.
The exciting forward who can play as a winger on either flanks posted pictures of his contract signing in the presence of his mother and his agent at the club secretariat, and sources close to the player confirmed to Owngoalnigeri.com that the deal is for five years.
