One of the most improved performers for Chelsea this season seems to have achieved this from pure hard work on the training ground.

Noni Madueke has forced himself into Enzo Maresca’s starting side after having to watch from the bench for the first game of the season.

Madueke went on to deliver the best statistical performance of any player in Europe this season in his first start against Wolves, where he also delivered his first hat-trick in English football.

He remained in the starting side for the first game after the international break at the weekend, with the Blues picking up a narrow 1-0 win over Bournemouth.

Madueke was described as angry when he was subbed off, however it was those off the bench who made the difference in the end.

Noni Madueke’s trainer offers to help Nicolas Jackson

The winger has been working hard away from the club with his personal trainer, Saul Isaksson-Hurst, and the improvements have been clear to see.

On the trainer’s Instagram story, a supporter asked him if he could also do some work with Nicolas Jackson.

Isaksson-Hurst seemed to be keen on this, simply saying: “I’m available”.

Chelsea putting faith in Jackson

Chelsea look as if they are putting a lot of faith in Jackson for the next few months at least, after electing not to sign a new striker during the summer transfer window.

Victor Osimhen was the name that was frequently mentioned, particularly in the final hours of deadline day.

Jackson has got off to a good start to the season, already recording two goals in his opening four fixtures.

He may be slightly worried for his place after Christopher Nkunku came off the bench to score the only goal on Saturday night, with many believing his quality is far too high to be left sitting on the sidelines.

Madueke may be in a similar position, after Jadon Sancho impressed greatly in his first appearance for the club in the second half.
