EPL: Chelsea shortlist 3 goalkeepers to replace Mendy, Kepa

Chelsea have identified three goalkeepers to replace Kepa Arrizabalaga and Edouard Mendy.

Chelsea owners, Todd Boehly and co, are looking for a replacement for both goalkeepers who have failed to leave up to their billings.

The Blues spent almost £71 million on Arrizabalaga and almost £30 million on Senegalese Mendy.
But they are showing no signs of being Chelsea’s long-term No. 1.

Arrizabalaga joined Chelsea from Athletic Bilbao in 2018, but the Spaniard was dropped after a string of errors and was replaced by Mendy.
Mendy was signed on the advice of legendary Chelsea goalkeeper Petr Cech.

Arrizabalaga has not done so badly this season but the Blues remain unconvinced about both the Spaniard and the Senegalese and are planning to bring in a new shot-stopper this summer.

Evening Standard listed the likes of Andre Onana from Inter Milan, Gregor Kobel from Borussia Dortmund and Brentford’s David Raya as top on Chelsea’s plan as they search for a new No. 1.
