Chelsea already have spent more than 100M this summer completing seven signings including Tosin Adarabayo, Estevao, Omari Kellyman, Marc Guiu, Liernan-Dewsburry-Hall, Renato Veiga, and Caleb Wiley. Now the club is on the verge of signing another player for the goalkeeper position.
Chelsea’s new boss Enzo Maresca is determined to sign some of the players according to his own playstyle before the start of the new Premier League season. Former Leicester City boss Enzo Maresca joined Chelsea last month as the Club’s new head coach. Maresca brought Kiernan Dewsburry-Hall from Leicester City. No doubt Maresca wants players according to their own playing style. so, the former Leicester City midfielder met Enzo Maresca, but in another shirt.
Chelsea are facing a problem with the goalkeeper position
Now, Maresca believes that the Blues need a new goalkeeper who could start all the games in the upcoming season. Last season former Chelsea boss Mauricio Pochettino used two different goalkeepers for the Chelsea number one. Although Robert Sanchez started the season for Chelsea, as the season progressed Djordje Petrovic became Pochettinho’s number-one choice for the goalkeeper. Robert Sanchez and Djordje Petrovic both joined the Blues from Brighton and New England respectively.
But both the goalkeeper failed to mark their presence on the pitch last season. Robert Sanchez joined from Premier League side Brighton and made only 16 appearances in the Premier League. In this process, the 26-year-old conceded 25 goals and kept only 3 clean sheets in his 16 Premier League matches. On the other hand, Petrovic made 23 appearances for the Blues last season in the Premier League, conceded 38 goals, and managed to keep 5 clean sheets within this time period. Apart from these two Chelsea goalkeeper Kepa will level the club as the Blues has no intention of keeping him. So, new boss Enzo Maresca wants a solution for the goalkeeper position and looking for a new goalkeeper who can play the whole Premier League season.
