Chelsea attacker Noni Madueke is the perfect player for Mauricio Pochettino.
That is according to Noni Madueke’s personal football coach, Saul Isaksson-Hurst.
Speaking with The Athletic, Isaksson-Hurst has provided some interesting tales about working closely with Madueke in the past couple of years.
It’s worth noting that he actually think the 21-year-old winger now has the ideal person in the manager’s dugout to work with on a day-to-day basis.
Isaksson-Hurst said: “Pochettino is ideal for Noni, but I think Noni is ideal for him. Pochettino likes young, proactive players who will just run all day and bust a gut. Noni is one of those people who will give everything in training and in matches.
“It is a match made in football heaven.”
Madueke’s got so much raw potential and ability. He now needs the right coach to knit everything together for him and get him developing on the right path.
The £29million (Sky Sports) is a joy to watch on the pitch with his quick dribbling and pace.
His most comfortable position is on the right wing and cutting infield to his favoured left foot, which can be very difficult for opposition full-backs to stop.
The competition for the front positions at Chelsea is certainly an interesting one to keep an eye on in the weeks ahead.
For Madueke, he’ll surely be hoping to force his way into the line-up as the permanent right-winger. However, the likes of Raheem Sterling, Mykhailo Mudryk and Cole Palmer provide different alternatives.
