Emmanuel Petit has named Noni Madueke as one of the players Arsenal should consider replacing this summer as the Gunners look to maintain their dominance in English football.
Madueke has been an important part of the squad since joining from Chelsea last summer, and he helped Arsenal secure the league crown in his first season at the club. The English winger also contributed to Arsenal’s run to the Champions League final and has been selected for the senior England national team ahead of the World Cup.
The attacker will be aiming to make an impact for England during the tournament, while also hoping to secure more consistent game time for Arsenal in the season ahead.
Petit’s assessment of Arsenal squad
However, Petit believes Madueke is among the players Arsenal should look to move on from, arguing that the club can find stronger options in his position to improve the overall quality of the squad.
He said via Mirror Football:
“For me the likes of Gabriel Martinelli and Gabriel Jesus. I don’t know about Viktor Gyokeres because he just came into the club.
“Leandro Trossard, I would keep him. But Noni Madueke, for me, isn’t good enough, I’m sorry to say that, but he must do much more than that to improve.
“But we definitely need wingers and probably one striker with pace, technical skills, great movement. We need to improve up front.”
Calls for attacking rebuild at Arsenal
Petit’s comments highlight his belief that Arsenal still need further attacking reinforcement despite recent progress. He suggests that improvements are still required in wide and forward positions if the club are to continue competing at the highest level domestically and in Europe. Squad depth and attacking consistency remain central to his assessment of what is needed moving forward.

It definitely won’t happen but best if Arsenal get a much better winger with an end product. I don’t rate Eze and Madueke satisfactorily. If there is the money, find better ones
Good Day to all fans of North-London-for-ever very impressive Anthem. My views about players, pls Arteta keep Trossard & martinelli in the squad. Dont think of selling them, if you do so that will be detrimental to the team. Also, do all you can to keep our captain odegaard, this is my views. Thanks to all.
Nooo he should sell them they are not good enough at all. Bin them out we need good and world class players to compete we need quality not quality. Get vini junior and quality midfieder and a striker as well sell harvert, jesus, martinelli, trossard, madueke. And others
He needs to add on more talented players.. but let it be a transition than selling 4 players that helped the club win the league and reach champions league finish. They are not excellent but they are good
