"The season is a success, no doubt," said Madueke. "We've come a long way in the past couple of years, and it's amazing to see how far we've grown as a team."

"We knew Chelsea was a winning club, so our goal was to win the Conference League final, and we did it. For many of us, this is our first major trophy, and we're thrilled to have achieved it."

"We're becoming a more mature team, and I think we've taken a big step forward in the past few weeks. We've shown our strength in tough games, like against Nottingham Forest and at home against Liverpool and Manchester United."

"And of course, winning a trophy is always a great feeling. In the Conference League final, we faced a tough first half, but we came out strong and showed our desire. The team is very united, and I'm proud of everyone."

Madueke also expressed his gratitude to the team's critics, saying that they spurred the team on to achieve more.

"Critics are a part of the game, and we should thank them for pushing us to do better. Our manager, Enzo Maresca, has proved his critics wrong this season, and we're grateful for his leadership."
