Noni Maduke completed his move to Arsenal, and the winger was writing a heartfelt message to Chelsea on Instagram.
Cole Palmer sent Noni Maduce his best wishes after completing his move to Arsenal on Friday night. England International joined the gunners in a £52 million deal.
The 23-year-old will join Mikel Arteta’s side on a five-year contract after agreeing to pay £48 million. If certain conditions are met, there is an additional £4 million add-on.
Shortly before his departure from Stamford Bridge was confirmed, Madueke took him to Instagram and sent a heartfelt message to his former club. He states: “Dear Chelsea Football Club. Thank you for the past three or so years.
“Thank you to all the staff who helped me along this journey. To my teammates, I leave with only love and admiration for you. We have achieved a lot this season.
“For Enzo Maresca, it was a privilege to play under you. Thank you for trying to make me better as a player and as a person. Finally, I would like to thank the Chelsea fans. I would like to thank you for your love, praise and criticism.

The immediate response was refreshing from his starring role in the English teammate Palmer – the FIFA Club World Cup – “Good luck with my boy.”
Palmer was doing something fast to reply to Hartfelt’s post.
Arsenal boss Arteta expressed his joy on Madueke’s move, saying, “We are very pleased to welcome Noni Madueke into our team. Noni is an exciting and powerful young player, with performances and numbers consistently high quality over the recent season.
“He is one of the most talented wide forward players in the Premier League. At just 23, Noni already brings his club and international football experience and knows the Premier League very well.”
“We’ve seen the quality of Noni’s performance over recent seasons, so we’re really looking forward to him joining us. Noni joined the group along with his familiar England teammates and other players he knows.”
Arteta also ensured that Madueke integrates smoothly into the team. “He makes me feel at home right away.
“His arrival will really improve our team — we’re excited to have him here.”
