Chelsea Transfer News: Juventus Wants to sign the Chelsea star in the summer
Chelsea Transfer News: Fichajes claims that Juve is seriously considering making a move for Chelsea’s 27-year-old Spanish goalkeeper Kepa Arrizabalaga this summer.
Many goalkeepers have been mentioned as possible transfers for Chelsea in recent weeks. It remains to be seen whether they are willing to part ways with the Spaniard in the coming months. For Graham Potter, Kepa Arrizabalaga has been indispensable, and his superior distribution has earned him the starting goalkeeper position over Edouard Mendy.
Mendy, meanwhile, has been linked to a departure from Chelsea. The veteran goalie is no longer in the rotation and will have to leave the team to play consistently. Selling both goalkeepers in the same transfer window would be an unusual move for Chelsea.
Nevertheless, Juve is trying to replace Wojciech Szczesny and co. with a strong goalkeeper, and they’ve set their sights on the €80 million Chelsea star. It remains to be seen whether the Serie A club can afford a player like Kepa in light of their current financial situation.

When he signed with Chelsea, the Spanish goalkeeper set a record transfer price of €80 million. And if Juventus come knocking after the season, the Blues will try to reclaim a considerable sum of money for him. Even more importantly, the Serie A heavyweights must qualify for the Champions League.
With a 15-point punishment, Juventus is no longer in the running for the Champions League. It remains to be seen where they place in the league rankings, but they will require Champions League involvement to attract quality players.
Since joining Chelsea, the Spanish goalkeeper has received widespread criticism for his play. But under new manager Graham Potter, he has found a new lease on life, and his recent performances have been pretty spectacular. By season’s conclusion, it will be interesting to see whether the 27-year-old is ready for a new challenge.
