Arsenal Football Club has completed the signing of Noni Madueke from Chelsea Football Club in a deal reported to be worth an initial £48.5 million, potentially rising to £52 million with add-ons. The 23-year-old England international winger agreed personal terms on a five-year contract valid until June 2030. Arsenal initiated contact with Chelsea after Madueke expressed willingness to join the club, prioritizing Arsenal over other interested Premier League teams. Negotiations between the clubs began following the agreement on personal terms. Chelsea, who acquired Madueke from PSV Eindhoven in 2023 for £29 million, were seeking a fee exceeding £50 million, with Arsenal's opening bid around £50 million including add-ons. The transfer was finalized after a series of discussions, with Madueke granted permission by Chelsea to leave their Club World Cup camp in the United States to undergo a medical examination in London. The deal marks another high-profile transfer between the London clubs, with Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta viewing Madueke as a key addition to strengthen the squad's wings.
