Noni Madueke, who is all set to complete a move from Chelsea to Arsenal this summer, was spotted partying at the Wireless Festival in London alongside ex-team-mates Jadon Sancho and Carney Chukwuemeka. Madueke was in London at a time when the Blues were in action in the Club World Cup final against Paris Saint-Germain in New Jersey. The English side won the tie 3-0 to lift the trophy.
The former Chelsea trio enjoyed their time off during the pre-season at the Wireless Festival in London. Madueke is on his way to join Arsenal, while Sancho is expected to exit Manchester United this summer after being deemed surplus to Ruben Amorim’s needs. Chukwuemeka, on the other hand, has returned to Stamford Bridge after his brief loan spell at Borussia Dortmund.
The Gunners have agreed to pay over £50 million ($67.8m) to secure the transfer of Madueke from the Blues. The winger is expected to undergo his Arsenal medical this week, now that Chelsea have successfully ended their Club World Cup campaign. The England international is expected to provide cover and competition for compatriot Bukayo Saka on the right flank.
Sancho spent the last season on loan at Chelsea and had expected to be retained by the Blues, but the West London side opted out of making the transfer permanent from United at the end of the 2024-25 campaign.
Madueke will be Arsenal’s fourth signing of the summer transfer window as Mikel Arteta’s spending spree continues in a bid to bolster his squad before the new season starts.
