Super Eagles winger Samuel Chukwueze has been deployed in a new wing-back role by AC Milan manager Ruben Amorim during the club’s first pre-season training session.

The Nigerian, traditionally a right winger, was used on the right side of midfield in Amorim’s tactical setup, a role similar to the one Amad Diallo played under the Portuguese coach at Manchester United.

Chukwueze returns to Milan after spending last season on loan at Fulham, where he scored three goals and provided four assists in 25 appearances.
