The 17-year-old has also been rewarded with a three-year endorsement contract with the famous German Sports Wear maker, Adidas.

Eletu has been a key part of Ignazio Abate’s Primavera side so far and has made 19 appearances in the current campaign across all competitions, with the 17-year-old playing predominantly as a deeper-lying midfielder in front of the back four.

Now, he has extended his deal until 2025 and there is an added layer of intrigue as the deal was completed in collaboration with the player’s agent, Allele Celestine, and Ted Dimvula, the lawyer that is in talks with Milan over Rafael Leao’s extension.
