Nigeria U20 striker Samuel Chukwueze was once again the name on the lips of followers of the youth team of Spanish LaLiga side Villarreal after his commanding display against the U19 team of Toledo.
Chukwueze took the game by storm for the U19 of Villarreal with an assist to gave them a two goal lead, before wining a penalty to help them extend their lead to 3-1 after Toledo have pulled a goal back.
The former U17 World Cup bronze boot winner was also involved in the fourth goal scored by Villarreal as he created the pass before the assist which lead to the goal.
Playing in a new number 10 role as opposed to his popular and preferred role on the flank. The 18 year old who moved to the club from Diamond Academy in the summer has so far caught the eyes for the B team.
Talks of a promotion to the first team are way off the mark in the main time, but if he maintains his current run of form, he will no doubt make a strong case to move up to the first team before the end of the season.
Already he has two goals and four assists to his name for the Villarreal youth side, who are currently fifth in the youth league in Spain with 29 points.
