JAKARTA - Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca said Noni Madueke was still available to play in the 2025 Club World Cup even though the club held talks about the player's possible move to London rival Arsenal.
ESPN reported on Monday, July 7, 2025, that Arsenal are continuing negotiations with Chelsea for Maduke. A deal worth 50 million euros (58.5 million US dollars) could happen as soon as this week.
When Chelsea won against Fluminense in the semifinals of the 2025 Club World Cup, Wednesday, July 9, 2025, early morning WIB, Madueke appeared even though he was off the bench.

"Personally I thought the noise was the same before the Palmeiras match. We gave him half an hour and he was very good."
"I have no doubt that if we needed Noni, she would help us. I can understand when there is noise around you, it's hard to deal with," said Maresca.
Madueke joined Chelsea from PSV Eindhoven in 2023 in a deal worth 35 million euros.
He got a regular place in the Maresca team by making 32 appearances in the 2024/2025 Premier League.
