The 26-year-old will join the Cottagers for the duration of the 2025-26 season, with the London side holding an option to make the move permanent.
Chukwueze will wear the number 19 shirt and get to play alongside fellow Super Eagles stars Calvin Bassey, who won the club’s player of the year award last season, and Alex Iwobi who has been one of the team’s consistent performers in recent seasons.
