Super Eagles winger Samuel Chukwueze made his long-awaited Fulham debut on Tuesday night, coming on as a second-half substitute in a hard-fought 1-0 Carabao Cup victory over Cambridge United.

We believe in Chukwueze — Fulham boss Marco Silva happy with new signing
Fulham boss Marco Silva has expressed his satisfaction with the summer signing of Nigerian winger Samuel Chukwueze from Milan.
Chukwueze, who joined the Cottagers from AC Milan on a season-long loan with an option to buy, replaced Adama Traore and immediately showed the directness and flair that made him a key target for manager Marco Silva.
His 30-minute cameo was a testing introduction to English football, as Fulham battled a determined Cambridge side that created several nervy moments for the Premier League club.

The former Villarreal star's debut comes after a period of adaptation since his deadline day move.
He had been on the bench for Fulham's recent Premier League match, but this cup tie provided the ideal opportunity for Silva to rotate his squad and give his new signings a run out.
The match was ultimately decided by a 66th-minute goal from Emile Smith Rowe, who calmly finished a cross to send the Cottagers into the next round.
For Chukwueze, the minutes on the pitch were invaluable. He is part of a growing Nigerian contingent at Fulham, alongside fellow Super Eagles stars Alex Iwobi, who stole the show in their last game in the Premier League, and Calvin Bassey.

His presence adds further depth to the squad, and his performance will be closely scrutinised as he aims to prove his worth in the Premier League.
Fulham fans will be hoping that his first appearance is a sign of things to come, as the team looks to build on its solid start to the league campaign.

The win against a well-organised Cambridge side, though not a dominant performance, sees Fulham's progression in the cup competition.
