AC Milan boss Paulo Fonseca has heaped praise on Samuel Chukwueze ahead of their UEFA Champions League match against Club Brugge.

Chukwueze scored the game-winning goal in AC Milan’s 1-0 victory over Udinese last Saturday.

The Nigerian international was also named Man of the Match following the game.

The Rooseneri will host the Belgian Pro League champions at the San Siro on Tuesday.

Fonseca hailed the winger’s abilities before of the match.

“Chukwueze and Okafor are quality players who performed well and with confidence. “That’s very positive for a coach,” Fonseca said during a press conference.

“I was very pleased with the players on Saturday because they told me and everyone that we can count on them.”
