Chelsea are very keen on signing PSV Eindhoven winger Noni Madueke despite signing Mykhailo Mudryk from Shakhtar Donetsk.

According to Simon Phillips, Chelsea have now accelerated their pursuit of the 20-year-old winger and have had initial contact with the player’s agent to find out if a deal can be done this month.

Phillips told GiveMeSport: “Chelsea are definitely very keen on this player. He’s one of many top young talents that Chelsea are trying to bring in.

“We’ve seen already, since the new owners came in, that they have been splashing the cash on young players.

“He’s another one that has come to the forefront and they’ve recently accelerated that interest and had some initial contact with his agent to see if a deal is doable.”
