Samuel Chukwueze: Winger eyes Liverpool scalp with Villarreal

Nigeria's Samuel Chukwueze is finally flying again with Spanish club Villarreal after an injury-hit spell, and is looking to cause another upset after downing one of Europe's elite.

Full of pace, skill and possessing a majestic left foot, the winger is the latest African talent to catch the eye in the Champions League.

Earlier this month the 22-year-old scored a late winner as Villarreal stunned Bayern Munich 2-1 on aggregate to reach the semi-finals of the continent's premier club competition for the first time in 16 years.

Now he has his sights set on another member of the elite as the Yellow Submarine face six-time European champions Liverpool in the semi-finals.
