Former Super Eagles forward, Mutiu Adepoju has claimed that Villarreal’s young sensation Samuel Chukwueze “has the potential to become world class”.

Chukwueze made his International debut in a friendly match against Uganda earlier in the month, but the Headmaster is already seeing the 19-year-old as a key player for Nigeria at the 2019 African Cup of Nations.

Adepoju in an interview with brila.net’s Adeniyi Adebanjo explained that the young attacker’s progress in a top league will enhance his development.

Adepoju told Brila FM that Chukwueze’s progress in a top league like La Liga shows the player’s quality and potential to excel with the right guidance.
