Goalkeepers
football.london reported on June 10 that Chelsea's new ownership group planned to open contract talks with Edouard Mendy this summer. The Senegal international has firmly established himself as the club's first-choice goalkeeper since arriving from Rennes in September 2020 but is one of the lowest-paid players in the first-team squad.
Discussions have now started between Chelsea and Mendy's camp but they are at an early stage and no deal is close to being agreed upon as yet. The 30-year-old still has three years remaining on the contract he signed when he arrived at Stamford Bridge.
