There’s a chance that Noni Madueke may end up leaving Chelsea next month.

That is according to a report from TEAMtalk.

Noni Madueke, who’s 21, only completed his move to Chelsea from PSV Eindhoven back in January of this year.

The right-winger’s been quite far down the pecking order at Stamford Bridge so far this season, making just eight appearances since Mauricio Pochettino became the head coach.

Now, the England Under-21 international is linked with a potential move in the January transfer window.

Potential Chelsea exit

TEAMtalk claims that Madueke is in line to exit Chelsea in January after a quiet campaign so far.

It is explained that the 21-yar-old is frustrated over his lack of minutes, which is why he’s keen to go and seek more game time elsewhere.

The report states the English wide player may look into his options in the New Year, albeit the Blues want to keep hold of him

Apparently, there may be the option for the English youngster to go out on loan in January.

TEAMtalk adds that Chelsea would sell Madueke for around £35million if they did decide to cash in and sell.

Noni Madueke could leave

We think a temporary exit on a short-term loan deal makes perfect sense for Madueke.

You could definitely argue that the fast left-footed attacker deserves a few more opportunities in the XI, but the manager clearly rates the likes of Mykhailo Mudryk, Cole Palmer and Raheem Sterling more highly.

Speaking on Sky Sports (10:08pm, 30 August), Paul Merson described Madueke as “outstanding” earleir this season.

Yes, Madueke’s still a very raw talent. We’ve got no doubt regarding his ability and the impact he could make in the Blues line-up right now, though.

Let’s hope Chelsea reach a conclusion where he’s playing football regularly in the second half of the season, whether that’s at the Bridge or out on loan.
