Super Eagles boss Eric Chellle received a timely boost after Samuel Chukwueze made a surprise return from injury to feature in AC Milan’s 2-0 win over Monza in Serie A.
Despite being ruled out of the fixture by Milan’s official pre-match update, the Nigerian winger was introduced at halftime for Yunus Musah and quickly made his presence felt.
Instant Impact
Chukwueze's accurate cross, which was crucial in breaking through Monza's defense, brought up Matteo Gabbia's first goal. After then, Joao Felix gave the Rossoneri a second goal to complete the victory.
Landmark Appearance
The match also marked Chukwueze’s 50th Serie A appearance for AC Milan since arriving from Villarreal in 2023.
Fitness Boost for Nigeria
With important 2026 World Cup qualifying matches and AFCON 2025 preparations approaching, his comeback to action and outstanding performance come at the ideal moment for Nigeria. Chellle will be happy to see his explosive winger back in shape and playing well.
