Chukwueze earns Man of the Match as AC Milan beats Torino 2-1 in Serie A

Chukwueze earned the Man of the Match award after AC Milan's 2-1 win over Torino at Stadio Olimpico Grande Torino on Sunday night, August 24, 2026. Deployed as a wing-back by manager Ruben Amorim, he set up Adrien Rabiot's second goal in the 67th minute, created the game's most chances (four) and shared the highest number of touches in the opposition box (nine). Torino struggled whenever he accelerated, especially during Milan's strong first-half attacks down his flank.

The performance adds to an impressive start since his return from a loan spell at Fulham last season. The 27-year-old Nigeria international will aim to repeat the impact when Milan host Venezia at San Siro in their next Serie A fixture.

With Chukwueze consistently delivering assists, chances and defensive work from wing-back, will he cement a regular starting role at Milan and force his way into more Super Eagles selections under the new coach?
