Chelsea goalkeeper set to return after loan spell

03 April 2024 - 20:46

Chelsea goalkeeper Kepa Arrizabalaga is expected to return to the club following his season-long loan deal at Real Madrid.

  • Arsenal make surprise decision on Viktor Gyokeres
  • Arsenal to battle Napoli to sign Alexsandro Ribeiro?



  • The Spanish star joined Los Blancos on a temporary basis last summer after Thibaut Courtois suffered a serious knee injury.

    He was a regular starter in the early months, but has since lost his place to Andriy Lunin, who has been consistent in goal.

    Lunin is currently in the process of penning a new contract at Madrid and hence the club have no desire to re-sign Arrizabalaga.

    The former Athletic Bilbao man will now return to the Blues, who are widely anticipated to sanction his sale during the summer.

    Arrizabalaga was signed for a staggering £72m by the Blues, but they may have to sell him for a cut-price fee in the next window.

    Chelsea would prefer to offload him to Saudi Arabia to secure a good sum, but it is unclear whether he would be keen on the move.
