Chelsea boss Pochettino expects more to come from Madueke

Chelsea boss Mauricio Pochettino expects there's more to come from Noni Madueke.

Pochettino says the winger must, however, first establish himself as a regular starter.

He stated: "First of all, it's about to have the space for him. When the club signed Cole Palmer, also he [Madueke] was here with the club. We were signing another player to play in the same position as him. It's all about adaptation and try to find a dynamic where Palmer and him can play together.

"Yes, of course, always we hope the players with talent, like Noni, we hope he can be consistent playing in the team, the starting XI.

"Of course, but always it's about to find the right balance for the team and when Palmer arrived, he was doing really well, sometimes you cannot play two players in the same position. But yes, he has the talent and we hope he can grow and be an important player for Chelsea in the future."
