Kepa gives verdict on Todd Boehly appearance after Brighton amid 'embarrassing' Chelsea claim

Kepa Arrizabalaga has insisted it is normal for Todd Boehly to appear in the dressing room after games amid reports detailing the Chelsea co-owner's comments to the whole squad after defeat to Brighton. The latest disappointing result arrived for the Blues on Saturday afternoon as they were handily beaten by Roberto De Zerbi's side, with Chelsea now losing their last three games in a row.

Conor Gallagher had put the hosts in front but a Danny Welbeck header and Julio Enciso thunderbolt turned the game around with the Seagulls coming out victorious. Despite the dismissal of Graham Potter, the form of the Blues has not improved with defeats to Real Madrid and Wolves coming in the two games prior to the Stamford Bridge loss against Brighton.

Following the weekend defeat to the Seagulls, the Daily Telegraph revealed that Boehly had headed down to the Chelsea dressing room to deliver a pre-Real Madrid rallying cry. Their report also says that Boehly described the current situation at Chelsea, in terms of results and the Blues sitting 11th in Premier League table, as "embarrassing".
