The teenage Nigerian forward made his first appearance for the senior national team in the international friendly encounter between Nigeria and the Cranes of Uganda .
Samuel was called up for the first time but was not in action in the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) qualifier against the Bafana Bafana of South Africa.
The LaLiga giants posted a message of encouragement to their youngster through their official Twitter account.
Chukwueze posted a picture of himself in action for the Super Eagles at the Stephen Keshi Stadium Asaba along with several emojis and the Nigerian flag.
Villarreal then responded saying, “Hopefully, that’s the first of many times we’ll be seeing you in the green shirt of your country Samu!.”
