Chelsea’s Noni Madueke impressed yet again yesterday for England’s Under-21s side.

England are enjoying quite the tournament this summer at the European Under-21 Championship, winning all three group stage matches to book their spot in the quarter-finals.

The Young Lions have a 100 per cent win record so far, which included a 2-0 victory over rivals Germany on Wednesday.

Now, Lee Carsley’s side take on Portugal this weekend for a place in the semi-finals.

Chelsea attacker Noni Madueke, 21, started yet again on England’s right wing.

The left-footed trickster really hurt the Germany defence with his pace and skill for his hour on the pitch.

He received big praise in the media for his eye-catching performance, with GOAL rating him an 8/10.

GOAL commented on Madueke: “Dominated down the right flank at times, torturing the German backline, until his substitution. A livewire who created chances almost every time he received the ball.”

Madueke is definitely still a raw talent that can improve his end product, something which is normal for a 21-year-old.

However, the dazzling wide player is really standing out as a player that gets fans off their seats.

Once Madueke pieces together his final ball, he could be unstoppable.

Chelsea centre-back Wesley Fofana recently told ESPN that Madueke is the future at Stamford Bridge.

Hopefully, Madueke is ready to take the Premier League by storm next season.

We really enjoy watching the youngster take to the field with a real fearlessness. It’s refreshing to watch an individual try so much with the ball at his feet and be direct.

Hopefully, incoming Chelsea head coach Mauricio Pochettino takes a shine to Madueke, who did only move to west London himself back in the January transfer window.
