Chelsea goalkeeper Kepa Arrizabalaga has been linked with a move away from the West London club this summer.
Kepa Arrizabalaga was on loan at Real Madrid last season, and he has returned to his parent club this summer. He is expected to move on permanently this summer, and it will be interesting to see where he ends up.
According to The Athletic, Saudi Pro League club Al-Ittihad are keen on signing the 29-year-old, and Chelsea have turned down an opening offer from them for the 29-year-old. The goalkeeper has a contract with Chelsea until 2025 and the Premier League side will be under pressure to sell him this summer. They will not want to lose him as a free agent next year.
The former Athletic Club goalkeeper will look to get his career back on track with regular football next season, and leaving Chelsea permanently will be ideal for him. It will be interesting to see if he is keen on a move to the Saudi Arabian club. Talks are currently underway between Chelsea and Al-Ittihad regarding a permanent move for the player.
Chelsea will be hoping to recoup a substantial amount of money for him. They paid a premium for him when he joined the club. But the Spanish goalkeeper has not been able to live up to the expectations over the years. Chelsea should look to cut their losses on the player and move on now.
Kepa needs to play regularly
The Spanish goalkeeper is very much at the peak of his career, and he needs to play regularly. He needs to join a club where he will get game-time assurances. However, he curiously wants to rejoin Real Madrid this summer. Los Blancos might launch the offensive to bring Kepa back to the Santiago Bernabeu if Andriy Lunin leaves this summer.
The 29-year-old cannot afford to sit on the bench at a big club at the stage of his career. He started just one game for Real Madrid since the turn of the year, and the loan spell was not a success either.
Kepa will hope to sort out his long-term future now and focus on his football once again. The Spanish goalkeeper was highly rated during his time at Athletic Club Bilbao and it will be interesting to see if he can get back to that level once again.
