Lazio relying on Chelsea 'goodwill' to close Kepa deal

Lazio have set their terms to Chelsea to sign Kepa Arrizabalaga.

Lazio are keen to sign Kepa for next season, though must rely on the goodwill of Chelsea to complete any deal, says Il Corriere dello Sport.

The Romans can only afford a loan arrangement and will also require Chelsea to cover 50 per cent of his wages.

For his part, Kepa is open to the move knowing he needs regular football to secure a place in this year's Spain World Cup squad.

At Chelsea, Kepa is strictly backup for outright No1 Edouard Mendy.
