Chelsea Main Plan For Goalkeeping Position Finally Revealed
Kepa Arrizabalaga has clearly cemented his return to the first team with his sensational man-of-the-match performance against Aston Villa on Sunday.
Making a superb 3-in-1 block against Aston Villa, Kepa will be spending a very long time in the starting eleven while Edouard Mendy sit out waiting for another opportunity.
Mendy dropped so much in form which warranted Potter into effecting an immediate change following his arrival as Thomas Tuchel replacement.
It’s expected that soon transfer interests will come in for Edouard Mendy same way it was for Kepa Arrizabalaga when was left on the bench under Tuchel.
According to Italian reporter; Fabrizio Romano, Chelsea have no plans of letting either of the keepers leave as they prefer having similar talent on the bench.
“Kepa was actually close to leaving in the summer as Napoli were in advanced talks with Chelsea over a deal,” Fabrizio said. “In the end, Todd Boehly didn’t accept a loan proposal with buy option as he only wanted to proceed on permanent deal.”
“Kepa is now doing great under Graham Potter but I’m sure Edouard Mendy will also be ready to compete soon, so there’s no news on the goalkeepers situation at Chelsea right now.”
