Star available for transfer as PL rivals express interest

Amid a busy transfer window, Chelsea have made one of their first-team stars available for a transfer.

According to reports, the Blues have made winger Noni Madueke available for the right price in the ongoing summer transfer window.

Madueke has been a regular starter under Enzo Maresca, so it's surprising that Chelsea are willing to let him go at the right price.

However, Maresca is looking to trim his squad and make way for other possible arrivals at Chelsea, so it does make sense that the club is looking to offload some players.

Following the signing of Liam Delap this summer, Chelsea has also agreed deals for Joao Pedro and Jamie Gittens from Brighton and Borussia Dortmund, respectively.

Given that Madueke has given a good account of himself in the Premier League, there should not be a shortage of potential suitors for the Englishman.

According to a report in The Telegraph, Madueke has been attracting interest from both Arsenal and Newcastle United.

The player has showcased his versatility by showing that he can play anywhere across the frontline and be an asset to whichever team he is playing for.

Given how much traction this news is generating, it certainly looks like its only a matter of time before Madueke finds a new club.
