Chelsea losing out on Andre Onana to Manchester United could actually prove to be a huge transfer boost for Mauricio Pochettino. The Blues had identified Onana as a goalkeeping option to sign but they ultimately left the race following a key decision made by the Argentine.
Despite a turbulent 2022/23 season for Kepa Arrizabalaga, which perhaps perfectly engulfed his spell in blue, Pochettino believes, along with goalkeeping coach Toni Jimenez, he can take the Spaniard to the next level.
Therefore, with that mission in play, signing a new No.1 is no longer in the plans and Pochettino is instead looking for a shot-stopper who can compete with Kepa for the position.
