Chelsea boss Pochettino 'so happy' with improving Madueke

Chelsea boss Mauricio Pochettino is happy with the progress of Noni Madueke.

Madueke has found some form in recent weeks.

Pochettino said: “I am so happy, it took him nearly six months to realise what we expect from him. Players need to improve and he is improving a lot. His behaviour now and how he has committed to himself first, and with the rest of the ideas from the club.

“He has potential and talent in the way that he needs to do the things and behave in the future if he wants to succeed.

“That is the platform for everyone and then it is about being right in your mind and be consistent in the way we propose they behave."

He added: “He was 16 when I was there; we knew him because we followed the players in the academy at Tottenham, but he was a talented player."
