Nkunku delivers the goods at Milan after 37m move from Chelsea

Christopher Nkunku is finally delivering the goods at Milan, having averaged one goal every 63 minutes in Serie A in the last month.

France international Nkunku is Milan’s best scorer in 2026, with three goals scored since the start of the year. Only his compatriot Adrien Rabiot has managed as many in this period.

As reported by Gazzetta (via Milan news), Nkunku has scored five goals in 313 minutes played in Serie A since December 28, when he bagged a brace in a home win against Hellas Verona.

This means the Frenchman has netted once every 63 minutes since the last league game of 2025.

Nkunku joined Milan on a permanent €37m plus add-ons from Chelsea last summer.

He has received regular playing time in recent weeks, also due to Christian Pulisic and Rafael Leao’s physical issues, but the Frenchman has surely made the most of every minute he’s played in recent times.

Milan sit second in the Serie A table, five points below leaders Inter.

They’ve only lost one league game this season and are unbeaten in the last 22 in Serie A.
