According to left-back Mark Cucurella, Noni Madueke should have been a bit more patient about moving to Arsenal. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
The 23-year-old winger was not included in the final against PSG in the World Club Championship, as his transfer had already been confirmed. Chelsea defeated the Parisians 3-0 and secured the trophy.
Cucurella stated in an interview with journalist Gerard Romero that Madueke's decision seemed a bit strange. He missed a good opportunity, as despite not being in the starting lineup in previous matches, he could have thought about the future and waited a few more days.
In his opinion, Madueke lost a lot. Arsenal officially announced Madueke's transfer on July 18.
The transfer fee amounted to 55.4 million euros. This move is considered a significant turning point in the player's career.
