AC Milan winger Samuel Chukwueze has confirmed he has no regrets about joining the Italian giants, despite being presented with a lucrative offer from Saudi Arabia last summer.

The Winger made the switch to Milan from Spanish club Villarreal last July, after a five-year stint in La Liga.

Chukwueze, 25, revealed that his agent had proposed a significant financial deal from a Saudi Arabian club, but he turned it down in favor of proving himself in Europe.

“If money were a problem, I would have signed in Saudi Arabia. They wanted me a year ago,” Chukwueze told Football Italia.

“My mind was set only on Milan. My agent told me, ‘Hey, look, there’s this money…’ But I said no: ‘I don’t want to go anywhere else.’”

The winger endured a challenging first season with the Rossoneri, scoring just once in 24 league appearances.

However, he has shown promise in pre-season, registering two assists and a goal in four matches.

Chukwueze remains determined to establish himself at Milan, stating, “The most important thing now is to believe in myself; I’m still young, I want to make it, I need to stay in Europe.”
