Chelsea identify 25-year-old goalkeeper as Kepa’s replacement
Chelsea have reportedly identified Lille goalkeeper, Mike Maignan, as Kepa Arrizabalaga’s replacement at the club, Sky Sport reports.
Maignan, 25, is seen as a credible candidate to challenge Kepa at Stamford Bridge.
Kepa’s future at Chelsea is uncertain after the Blues boss, Frank Lampard, dropped him for their Premier League final day tie against Wolves last month.
Lampard opted to feature veteran goalkeeper Willy Caballero ahead of Kepa as Chelsea defeated Wolves 2-0 at Stamford Bridge.
The England gaffer is not pleased with Kepa, who has struggled this season and is now looking for replacements.
Maignan was an ever-present for Lille last season and would cost Chelsea around €30m (£27m) to sign him.
