With the likes of Mason Mount and Kai Havertz pushing to leave Chelsea this summer, Chelsea winger Noni Madueke has declared he wants to be a Chelsea legend.

Madueke, who is part of the England squad at the U21 European Championships, has also declared he wants to win the tournament.

“To win the tournament has to be our target, and I think we can,” Madueke told Evening Standard.

“And if I play week in, week out next season, I will be in contention for a senior team call-up. I’ve spoken to Gareth [Southgate] and the door is open.

“Being a Chelsea legend, playing for England and scoring goals comes with it, but I just want to be seen as a player that inspired. I want people to look back on my career and think, ‘Wow, Noni was unbelievable’. I want them to be in awe.”

The arrival of Christopher Nkunku this week will only increase competition for wide spots in the team. But Madueke insists he is relishing the fight to earn a regular starting place.

“If you ask Raheem [Sterling] or Mykhailo [Mudryk], they’ll tell you the same thing,” he added. “Top teams have that. Right and left you have three options. You want to perform because you have to.”
