Enzo Maresca has confirmed that Noni Madueke is set to leave the club and join Arsenal.
The north Londoners are said to have agreed a £50m deal for the Chelsea winger, who is reportedly set for a medical.
Quizzed on Madueke’s situation on Friday, Maresca said: “Noni is in contact with the new club.
“I guess that he’s going to leave in the next hours. In the end, if players want to leave, it’s difficult for the club and for the manager.
“Noni decided to leave. No one said to Noni: ‘You have to leave’. Noni decided to leave and if he’s happy, we’re happy.”
