Kepa to stay at Chelsea as friend arrives Stamford Bridge

Chelsea goalkeeper, Kepa Arrizabalaga has decided not to leave the club this summer.

The Spain shot-stopper is said to have convinced himself that he can win Chelsea supporters over.

The Spanish goalkeeper was among the clutch of top stars tipped to exit Stamford Bridge this summer as part of a major squad shake-up.

The Blues have already agreed to offload Senegalese goalkeeper Edouard Mendy and want to bring in Porto’s Diogo Costa or Brighton’s Robert Sanchez.

The Sun reports that Kepa wants to stay at Stamford Bridge, thrilled by the prospect of working alongside Mauricio Pochettino and his staff.

The report claims Kepa is friends with Toni Jimenez, Pochettino’s long-time goalkeeper coach, who will join the Argentine in west London, with the two confident of improving the goalkeeper next season.

Mendy, meanwhile, is on the verge of signing with Saudi club, Al Ahli.
