Meet Noni Madueke's 'good friend' Rubi Rose – hot rap star who Arsenal target video calls

Noni Madueke is set to move to Arsenal

Chelsea starlet Noni Madueke is set to make the jump from Chelsea to Arsenal.

Madueke, 23, will play no part in Chelsea's bid to win the Club World Cup on Sunday with Enzo Maresca confirming Madueke had been allowed to leave the camp.

"Noni is in contact with the new club," he told a press conference. "I guess he is going to be (announced) in the next hours...I said in the one of the last press conferences, if players want to leave then it is difficult for the club and the manager.

"Noni decided to leave, nobody told Noni he had to leave. If he is happy, we are happy." And it's widely reported that club is Arsenal - with the two sides agreeing a £48.5million fee.

Rubi Rose is a close friend of Noni Madueke

And one person that might know a bit more about the move is his close friend Rubi Rose.

ast summer, Madueke took time out from his busy schedule to speak to music and fashion magazine Clash - and during the interview he was asked to call a rapper.

The winger called Rubi, and when she picked up, Madueke immediately said: "Yo, you're on cam." Rubi then replied: "You look good."

Rubi Rose was spotted at Stamford Bridge earlier this season

"You're on cam - Clash magazine. What you saying? How you been," he repeated. "I'm good. They told me to call a rapper so I thought I might as well just call you."

She then cheekily said: "Your favourite, right? Your favourite rapper?"

"One of them," he smiled back.

Rubi started her music career in 2020 - and alongside her rapping career she also runs an x-rated website.

Seeing the video of her call with Madueke, which was posted by Clash Magazine, Rubi wrote on social media: "This is old…Y'all weird for posting it now."

Rubi was seen at Stamford Bridge this season, cheering on her friend during their clash with Tottenham.
