Samuel Chukwueze is no doubt one of the best wingers in the world considering his performances since moving to the Spanish La Liga where he has been superb for Villarreal.

Last season, he was injured and was unable to play in the final of the Europa League which his club won beating Premier League side Manchester United in the final.

Should Samuel Chukwueze make a move to Premier League side Everton, then he will have the chance to play with Super Eagles teammate Alex Iwobi.
