'What an exciting player he is!' - Adepoju in awe of Chukwueze's performance against Celta Vigo

goal.com, 14 June 2020, 15:13
The ex-Real Madrid midfielder has heaped praise on the nimble-footed Nigeria international after his notable display for Villarreal on Saturday

LaLiga ambassador Mutiu Adepoju has described Villarreal 's Samuel Chukwueze as "exciting" following the Yellow Submarine's 1-0 victory over Celta Vigo at the Estadio de Balaidos on Saturday night.

Javier Calleja's men came into the encounter with the ambition of returning to winning ways - having lost three successive league games before the coronavirus pandemic placed Spanish football on a hiatus.

After a hard-hitting first half, super-sub Manuel Trigueros sealed all points at stake for the visitors in the 90th minute.

Chukwueze who replaced Gerard Moreno in the 56th minute played a key role as he added a greater threat to Villarreal's frontline.
