Chelsea’s winger Noni Madueke states unfavorable sound around the club is ‘exaggerated’ as he hailed life under Enzo Maresca up until now. 

The Blues’ transfer window activity nabbed headings this summer season, with a variety of huge names heading for the exit.

Romelu Lukaku left for Napoli, whilst Raheem Sterling signed for Arsenal on loan after being dropped from the team and his camp dropping a declaration about his future at the club. Ben Chilwell, on the other hand, stays in exile.

A variety of gamers are training far from the first string as they have a hard time to enter into the match day teams.

But Madueke firmly insists things aren’t as disorderly as they have actually been recommended to be.

The winger, who made his very first senior England call-up for this month’s internationals, informed talkSPORT: “Of course what you guys see on the outside is slightly exaggerated. 

“Of course, in the building, it’s a great place to be, to be around. But of course there’s a lot of things going on with all the signings, the turnover and stuff. 

“But as a football player your job is to perform on the pitch. 

“You can’t be looking at all the outside stuff, you have to zone in, try and play your best football when you’re called upon. 

“That’s what I try and do.”

After Mauricio Pochettino left Chelsea at the end of last season despite guiding the Blues to a sixth place finish in the Premier League, the pressure was on for new manager Enzo Maresca.

But the Italian, who got Leicester promoted back to the Premier League last season, has appeared to be getting his team selections right so far – and Madueke is enjoying playing under him already.

The 22-year-old said: “He’s a great guy, very good manager, great tactician. He’s helping me a lot with my game, little details.

“Things that you wouldn’t necessarily think of yourself. I always feel like a great manager will say ‘this will help you score more, this can help you get in behind more’, stuff like that.

“Little things like that really help.”

Chelsea have had a mixed start to the campaign, losing 2-0 to Manchester City, thumping Wolves 6-2 and drawing 1-1 with Crystal Palace.

Madueke has been on fire under Maresca, scoring four goals in as many games this season – three of them coming at Molineux.

One star that’s also flourishing this season already is Cole Palmer.

After a stellar debut campaign for the Blues last term, Palmer has carried on his electric form, bagging one goal and four assists so far.

Madueke and Palmer played along with each other for several years before Palmer reached Stamford Bridge last summer season, starring for England’s under-21s.

And the winger states that experience together is working marvels for them both at Chelsea.

“We’ve been playing with each other for eight years now I think in the exact same positions we’re playing in now,” he said.

“So it’s great he’s my teammate and we’ve got a good relationship off the pitch as well, but on the pitch we know each other’s games.

“It’s easy to play with someone like that because he knows what you like to do, and I know what he likes to do.

“We have a good chemistry and long may it continue.”
