According to the Sun, Maduaike's personal coach Hurst was interviewed and talked about the outside world's doubts about Maduaike.

Note: Chelsea coach Maresca repeatedly accused Maduaike of insufficient investment in training last season, and Chelsea sold Maduaike to Arsenal this summer. In July this year, when Arsenal signed Maduaike for £48 million, some Arsenal fans ruthlessly expressed their "deep disappointment" at the signing. England coach Tuchel also mentioned that Maduaike sometimes "distracted" in the game after England defeated Andorra 2-0 last Saturday.

Hurst said: "The biggest misunderstanding of Maduaike is his mentality. He is like a 'mind monster'. In this regard, I will compare him to Ronaldo. Maduaike is clear and motivated. He wants to be the top player and is eager to improve himself. This summer we spent five or six days in Marbella (Spanish city), and during this summer I had to force him to take a day off and let him relax. Maduaike always wants to train, always want to practice for a while, and he also takes the initiative to ask for extra content."

"When his peers were partying in Marbella's beach club, he was on the grass and trained with me every day. Practice. I can only express my opinion on his performance when he was training. I have never seen him in Chelsea, but as long as he trains with me, he works very hard and always stays focused. "

Regarding some Arsenal fans' criticism of the team's signing of Maduaike, Hurst responded: "These criticisms are nothing to him. He will accept it calmly because this is part of football and it will not make him back. On the contrary, he is eager to succeed in Arsenal. I believe that Arsenal fans will eventually fall in love with Maduaike, a giant club, and Maduaike's goal is to be one of the best players in the world."
