🚨 EXCLUSIVE: Arsenal Set to Submit First Offer for Noni Madueke.
Arsenal are preparing to table their first official bid for Chelsea winger Noni Madueke, sources have revealed. The 22-year-old is keen on the switch to North London, and personal terms are already understood to be agreed upon — a five-year contract running until June 2030.
Madueke, who joined Chelsea from PSV Eindhoven in January 2023, has shown flashes of brilliance but has struggled for consistent minutes under multiple managers. With Chelsea now looking to balance their books amid continued spending, the club is open to letting the English winger leave for the right price.
Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has long admired Madueke’s direct style, pace, and dribbling ability. The Gunners see him as a versatile attacking option capable of challenging Bukayo Saka for the right-wing role while also providing cover across the front line.
The proposed move is said to have progressed quickly over the past 48 hours. With personal terms fully agreed, the only remaining hurdle is the fee between the two London rivals. Chelsea are reportedly holding out for a figure in the region of £35–£40 million, while Arsenal hope to negotiate closer to £30 million plus add-ons.
The player’s desire to join Arsenal could prove pivotal in talks, with Madueke believed to be pushing for the move behind the scenes. Sources close to the negotiations describe the mood as “optimistic” on Arsenal’s side, with a belief that a deal could be wrapped up swiftly.
Should the transfer be completed, Madueke would become Arsenal’s first major signing of the summer, joining a squad already rich in attacking talent and aiming to challenge for the Premier League title in the 2025/26 season.
