"He's going nowhere." Enzo Maresca confirms this Chelsea winger is part of his plans and would not be sold amid Olise saga.

 Chelsea are not planning to offload Noni Madueke this summer, according to acclaimed transfer guru Fabrizio Romano.

The English forward has blown hot and cold since arriving at Stamford Bridge, and his future remains up in the air.

New manager Enzo Maresca is expected to add more bite to his attack over the summer. Crystal Palace ace Michael Olise is apparently on the Italian manager's radar and his arrival could spell trouble for Madueke. Recent reports have suggested that Juventus are eyeing the Englishman with interest.

However, in his column for Caught Offside, Romano refuted those claims.

"I’m also aware of a Chelsea rumour involving Noni Madueke and Juventus, but I have no updates on this at the moment," wrote Romano.

"Madueke is an important player for Chelsea, so there is really nothing concrete on his future so far. We will see if something changes in the next weeks, but for now Juventus are also focused on the Douglas Luiz swap deal with Aston Villa.”

Madueke scored eight goals and set up three in 34 games across competitions in the 2023-24 campaign.
