Graham Potter explains why Chelsea signed Noni Madueke following classy Mykhailo Mudryk debut

Chelsea have not been shy in the January transfer market and added two attacking players to their ranks in the last seven days. Mykhailo Mudryk was presented to supporters during the Blues' win over Crystal Palace, while Noni Madueke's transfer from PSV was confirmed on the eve of Chelsea's trip to Anfield.

The latter was not signed in time to make the first team squad, while the former made his debut in the second half of the draw against Liverpool. Mudryk joined in training earlier in the week but was unable to complete 90 minutes having not played competitive football since November.

The Ukraine international put in an impressive second half cameo to solidify his place among the Chelsea ranks. Graham Potter's new duo will have no shortage of competition in the forward positions with Mason Mount and Hakim Ziyech starting on the wings against Jurgen Klopp's side and Christian Pulisic and Raheem Sterling to return from injury. There is even the potential for the likes of Carney Chukwuemeka to play such a role.
