Chelsea are interested in signing PSV Eindhoven winger Noni Madueke this month, football.london understands. The 20-year-old forward is viewed as an option for the attacking ranks to help bolster Graham Potter's squad in both short-and-long-term planning.
Madueke has shown plenty of promise for the Dutch side in the previous season, though an ankle injury plagued the start of the current campaign and he has yet to cement a place in the first-team since. The former Crystal Palace and Tottenham academy prospect signed a new deal at the club in 2021, which is set to keep him there until 2025.
A move for Madueke comes amid a change of transfer philosophy with the introduction of the new ownership, where the focus is on youthful signings, amid a whole host of injury troubles at the club. Potter had as many as 10 first-team stars out at one time this month, coinciding with a dip in form.
