"We're delighted to bring Noni to Chelsea," they said.
He’s an exciting talent who has proven his quality over the past few years with PSV, playing in a strong European league, and we are thrilled he has chosen to join Chelsea for this next stage of his career.
We are sure he will form an important part of our team.’
New young talent for Chelsea

Mykhailo Mudryk is on an eight and a half years contract; Benoit Badiashile and Davide Datro Fofana are on a seven-and-a-half-year contract; and now Noni Madueke is committing his next seven and a half years to Chelsea.
