The winger, who came off the bench, is now facing growing interest from Arsenal. Reports (via The Mirror) say Chelsea have slapped a £50 million price tag on him. But when Maresca was asked about Madueke’s future, he didn’t name names. Instead, he gave a message meant for every player in blue.

Chelsea boss Enzo Maresca spoke to BBC Sport after the 2-1 win over Palmeiras: "I think in the first half we were in control of the game. We didn't concede nothing. "We scored the goal and we could have scored more. Second half, they started better than us and they scored. The game changed a little bit - the dynamic changed.

Enzo Maresca refused to comment on speculation about Mohammed Kudus, but admitted he has known the attacker since his Ajax days. Chelsea have already been busy this summer, and have signed Liam Delap, Jamie Gittens and Joao Pedro, with more new faces expected to follow.
