Noni Madueke avoids injury scare ahead of Champions League final
Arsenal winger Noni Madueke is expected to be fit for the Champions League final against PSG after avoiding a serious injury.
Arsenal winger Noni Madueke is on track to participate in the Champions League final against PSG on May 30. According to The Athletic, initial concerns regarding the 24-year-old's fitness have been dismissed.
The Englishman was the hero in Arsenal's recent Premier League victory over Crystal Palace, scoring a stunning volley in the 2-1 win. Late in the match, he requested a substitution while clutching the back of his left thigh, sparking fears of a muscle tear.
The coaching staff reportedly opted for the substitution purely as a precaution, as the issue was identified as a cramp rather than a serious injury. Madueke showed no signs of discomfort during the post-match celebrations and trophy presentation, and he is expected to be included in the squad for the final in Paris.
