Transfer news live: Gyokeres to Arsenal update, Mbeumo set for Man United medical, Liverpool close in on Ekitike

Noni Madueke has said his goodbyes to Chelsea after completing a £48m summer transfer to London rivals Arsenal.

The 23-year-old winger joined the Blues from PSV Eindhoven in 2023 and played 92 times for Chelsea, scoring 20 goals and providing nine assists.

He won the Conference League with Chelsea last season and also featured in their successful Club World Cup campaign in June.

The winger, who has signed a five-year deal with the Gunners that runs to June 2030, thanked his former teammates and manager before claiming he leaves Chelsea with “love and admiration”.

Arsenal are not expected to complete a deal for Viktor Gyokeres before the squad leaves for its pre-season tour of Asia this weekend, according to the Times.

Arsenal are expected to pay Sporting €63m guaranteed over instalments, with another €10m subject to add-ons.

Sporting climbed down from asking for a guaranteed €70m over changes of terms on issues like the payment of agent commissions.

However, talks continue over the nature of the add-ons, with Sporting’s representatives flying to London to complete the deal with Arsenal.
