Chelsea star reveals he is studying Kylian Mbappe and Mohamed Salah videos to improve his performance “I watch them everyday”
Chelsea star Noni Madueke has revealed that he has been meticulously observing clips of Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) superstar Kylian Mbappe and Liverpool talisman Mohamed Salah.
The English forward admitted that he is studying their videos in a bid to improve his finishing. Madueke said (via the Evening Standard):
“I look at the best. James Ryder, our analyst, clipped up Mbappe and Salah, so I watch them a lot. The way they always follow their pass into the box, or when a team-mate is in the box, they’re always there to anticipate.”
He added:
“One thing I’ve got to add to my game is the easier goals, the one-touch goals – that’s what I’m trying to improve. I know I go at such a pace so sometimes I’ve got to calm down at the last moment, take a breath and then slot it away. I’ve just got to keep working so I can do it when I get back to Chelsea.”
Madueke featured in the England Under-21s’ thrilling 9-1 win over Serbia on Thursday, October 12.
The striker bagged a brace in the encounter as Jaden Philogene and Liverpool’s Harvey Elliot also scored twice.Chelsea signed Madueke from PSV Eindhoven this summer for nearly £30 million. The England youth international has so far not had the start he wanted to life at Stamford Bridge. He has registered just 44 minutes of Premier League action for the Blues this season spread over three appearances due to a muscle injury he sustained in September.
Madueke did, however, get his first start for Mauricio Pochettino’s side in the Carabao Cup against AFC Wimbledon on August 30, scoring a penalty in the encounter.
