Chelsea's manager, Enzo Maresca, has acknowledged Madueke's potential contribution to the team. Although it appears that Madueke's time at Chelsea is coming to an end, Maresca expressed confidence in the player's abilities, stating that he can still make a positive impact if needed.
Journalist Fabrizio Romano has provided an update on the situation, revealing that Arsenal will soon engage in direct talks with Chelsea to discuss the terms of Madueke's transfer. However, a gap in valuation between the two clubs may pose a challenge in reaching a mutually agreeable deal.
Madueke has reportedly agreed to a five-year contract with Arsenal, pending the resolution of the transfer negotiations. The Gunners are eager to secure Madueke's services, as his arrival could potentially revitalize their attack, which struggled to find consistency in goal-scoring last season.
With the Premier League title in their sights next season, Arsenal's management, led by Mikel Arteta, will be keen to bolster their squad with players like Madueke, who can make a significant impact on the team's performance.
