One Chelsea star is top target of their London rivals Arsenal. The player is very excited to join Gunners who has already submitted official offer.
Chelsea are currently busy in Club World Cup. They have reached final and will now face PSG. Enzo Maresca will hope to end his first season with another trophy. The Blues can become the first club to win the newly formatted CWC. But, the club is also busy in transfer market.
The Blues have signed Liam Delap, Joao Pedro and Jamie Gittens this summer. This has increased their attacking depth even more. But at the same time, this has raised doubts over the future of current stars. As a result, many attackers are linked with exit. One of the exit-linked star is likely to join their city rivals Arsenal.
Chelsea winger excited to join Arsenal
The star in question here is Noni Madueke. Chelsea signed him in January 2024 from PSV. The 23 year old has played well for the Blues on multiple occasions but has failed to stay consistent. As a result, he has fallen down the pecking order and with new arrivals his game-time is likely to decrease even further.
Madueke is wanted by Arsenal this summer. Gunners have already agreed personal terms with him over a 5 year contract. The North London giants have already submitted an official offer. But, Chelsea have rejected it as they want £50 million for the English winger.
Fabrizio Romano has now updated about Madueke transfer saga. He has said on his youtube channel that the 23 year old is very excited to join Arsenal. Hence, the deal for the English winger is very likely to happen this summer. But, there has been mixed response about this from the Arsenal fans.
🚨🔴⚪️ EXCL: Arsenal have submitted initial bid for Noni Madueke around £50m package, add-ons included.
Chelsea want more than £50m fixed as Elanga/similar deals remain their reference.

Majority of Arsenal fans are disappointed by their club signing Madueke. They feel that the 23 year old is not the signing they need right now. Madueke mainly plays on right wing where Arsenal already have Bukayo Saka. Hence, the fans are not happy with club signing Madueke.
