Arsenal have completed the signing of England forward Noni Madueke from Chelsea in a deal worth £52 million.
Arsenal announced Madueke’s signing via a statement on Friday.
The Premier League club stated: “We’re delighted to announce that England international Noni Madueke has joined us on a long-term contract.
“The 23-year-old, north London-born forward joins us from Chelsea, where he made 92 appearances in all competitions.”
Arsenal will pay an initial fee of £48.5 million plus £3.5 million in add-ons.
Speaking, Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta said: “We’re all so happy to welcome Noni Madueke to the team.
“Noni is an exciting and powerful young player, with his performances and numbers in recent seasons being of consistently high quality. He is one of the most talented wide forward players in the Premier League.
“At just 23, Noni already brings experience of club and international football, and he knows the Premier League very well. Having seen the quality of Noni’s performances up close in recent seasons, we’re really excited he is joining us.

“His arrival will really improve our squad – we’re all thrilled to have him here.“
Madueke will wear the number 20 shirt, and due to his participation at the Club World Cup this summer, he will join up with the squad in early August after the Gunners Asia tour, the club added.
The 23-year-old winger becomes Arsenal’s fourth signing of the summer after Kepa Arrizabalaga, Martin Zubimendi, and Christian Norgaard.
Madueke is the seventh player to make the move from Chelsea to Arsenal in the last six years, after Kepa, Raheem Sterling, Kai Havertz, Jorginho, Willian, and David Luiz.
Madueke scored 20 goals in 92 games for Chelsea following his £29 million arrival from PSV Eindhoven in 2023.
He helped the Blues win the Conference League last season and also played a part in their Club World Cup triumph in the United States.
