Chelsea winger Noni Madueke has apologised for an offensive social media post aimed at Wolverhampton.

Ahead of Chelsea’s fixture at Wolves on Sunday, Madueke called Wolverhampton ‘sh*t’ on his official Instagram, before deleting the post and admitting he meant to post it on his private account.

The 22-year-old was booed during Chelsea’s 6-2 win at Molineux but responded with a brilliant individual performance. Madueke scored the first hat-trick of his senior career in the second half as Chelsea earned their first Premier League win under Enzo Maresca.

Following the win, Madueke apologised to anyone he might have offended.

“I just want to apologise to everyone that I might have offended,” he told Premier League Productions.

“It is just a human mistake, an accident. It wasn’t meant to be out on my socials like that. I’m sure Wolverhampton is a nice town and I’m sorry.

“In terms of the boos I expected it but it is part of the game. You have to be able to play under that sort of pressure.”
