Kepa Arrizabalaga would like to leave Chelsea this summer, according to Matt Law from The Telegraph. The second string goalkeeper has struggled for game time since the arrival of Edouard Mendy in the 2020 summer transfer window. Mendy easily assumed his role as first-choice goalkeeper. Petr Cech himself handpicked the Senegal international for Frank Lampard at the time in hopes of solving their unreliability issues in goal.
Despite his heroics in cup competitions and penalty shootouts, Kepa was not classified as the most reliable keeper, yet he holds the title of the most expensive. Buying him at £72 million in 2018, Chelsea made the Spaniard the most expensive goalkeeper in history. It never seems to work out for the big money signings at Chelsea. They have Kepa, Romelu Lukaku, Fernando Torres, Andriy Shevchenko, e.t.c. to take precedence from.
Now that Kepa wants to leave the club, his price tag and wage demands would make it tricky for Marina Granovskaia and her team to negotiate.
