Arsenal Talk to Chelsea About Signing Noni Madueke

Arsenal Football Club have officially spoken to Chelsea Football Club about signing winger Noni Madueke, SportsRation reports.

Last week, BBC Sport said that Arsenal had already agreed personal terms with Madueke, even before making a formal move. Now, they have made an official approach to Chelsea.

Chelsea are asking for around £50 million for the 23-year-old England player.

Madueke is currently with Chelsea at the Club World Cup. He came on as a substitute in their 2-0 win over Brazilian team Fluminense, which took Chelsea to the final.

Since joining from Dutch club PSV Eindhoven in January 2023, Madueke has played 92 games for Chelsea and scored 20 goals.

Before moving to the Netherlands, he was part of Tottenham’s academy.

Arsenal want to add more attacking players to their team. They are also looking at Real Madrid’s Rodrygo and Crystal Palace’s Eberechi Eze.

Arsenal are working hard to sign striker Viktor Gyokeres as well. Their sporting director, Andrea Berta, recently met face-to-face with Sporting Lisbon in Portugal to talk about the deal.
