Villarreal are set to offer a new long-term contract to midfielder Samuel Chukwueze, according to reports in Marca.
The Nigerian international broke into the Yellow Submarine first team last season, and he has quickly established himself as a fans favourite at the El Madrigal.
He has feature in six of their seven La Liga games so far this season, and he looks set to play a key role this season, alongside Santi Cazorla and Pau Torres.
He reports states that his current deal, which runs up until 2023, includes a release clause of €40m.
Villarreal are set to raise his basic salary and increase his release clause up to €60M, to ward off reported interest from Liverpool, Real Madrid and Bayern Munich.
Javi Calleja’s side confirmed earlier this week that Torres has signed a new deal, up to 2024, after a fine start to the season, after a year long loan at Malaga in 2018-19.
