He came in from Rennes for a mega fee of around £23.5 million, playing 15 times since then.
Ugochukwu was out with a serious hamstring injury, but did come back for the final two games of the term.
The 20-year-old is currently with France's Olympic squad in Paris, but will soon be hoping to move to a Premier League side where he can play regularly.
