Villarreal winger, Samuel Chukwueze, has won La Liga’s African Player of the Season award.
Chukwueze started the season as a fringe figure at Villarreal coming off the bench in dying minutes of matches with little or no significant impact but the arrival of manager, Quique Setien saw a remarkable turnaround in his form.
The Nigeria international ended the season with 13 goals and 11 assists across all competitions.
It was the 24-year-old’s most productive season since his arrival at the Estadio de la Ceramica.
The spectacular form has seen Chukwueze linked with a number of clubs in Europe including Real Madrid, Aston Villa and Newcastle United.
The nimble dribbler arrived in Villarreal in 2019. The player initially played for the second team before he was promoted to the senior side
