Days before the league match between Valencia and Athletic in Mestalla, the club che sounded as a possible destination for Kepa Arrizabalaga via the loan of Chelsea. A further possibility emerged from England given the alleged lack of confidence of Frank Lampard in the former rojiblanco goalkeeper. The name of Sevilla also appears now as a possible destination for the meta ondarrutarra.
Today, in the English press, it can be read that Lampard will make the “bold decision” to transfer Kepa. Mike Maignan, from Lille, Alphonse Areola, from PSG, and Adré Onana, from Ajax, sound in the blue orbit as possible alternatives for the goal that the ex-lion currently occupies. ANDThe problem that the English club is at the time of Being able to undertake this operation is the long duration of the contract of its starting goalkeeper (five more seasons) and his high record (around eight million). All this without forgetting that Chelsea paid Athletic 80 million for him as a termination clause.
Lampard, in such a position, pointed out a few days ago that “Kepa obviously tries to do his job as well as he knows how to do it. I am happy with it. We keep working. I'm not going to talk about what can happen at the end of the season. “
The Chelsea coach also indicated that “There has been a lot of talk about Kepa this season. All I want from him, like from the rest, is the right mindset, attitude and approach for the parties ”.
