Chelsea have decided to open the exit door for Kepa. ‘The Sun’ reports that Chelsea agrees to yield to the Spanish goalkeeper in the winter market. His most likely destination is Lazio. Chelsea have agreed to allow the goalkeeper to join the Italian club from next January. Sarri would be excited to work with the goalkeeper again despite the dispute in the 2019 Carabao Cup final, when Sarri had decided to replace Kepa (who refused to leave) with Caballero before the penalty shoot-out.
The goalkeeper, who has lost his place in the National Team in favor of Robert Sánchez, needs continuity in order to try to be in the 2022 World Cup. In Rome he could find the minutes that would allow him to return to Luis Enrique’s list.
However, a few weeks ago the goalkeeper himself acknowledged feeling very comfortable at Chelsea: “When you are in the same place for years you feel confident and comfortable. I have played with the same teammates for a couple of years and that is fine, I am being very good at the club at the moment“,
