Chelsea are reportedly not ruling out signing a certain Premier League goalkeeper this summer despite sending out recent media briefings.
The Blues need a new goalkeeper, we can all see that, make no mistake about it. Filip Jorgensen started in the sticks for Chelsea in their last game, a big win against Southampton, having taken the number one spot from Robert Sanchez.
The Blues won the game 4-0 in what was a much needed convincing performance, with goals coming from Christopher Nkunku, Pedro Neto, Levi Colwill, and Marc Cucurella.
EXCLUSIVE! The Goalkeeper Chelsea were very close to signing over Robert Sanchez – fans would have much preferred this!
The Saints were a very poor opposition of course, but Chelsea really needed a big win and a big performance, and that is exactly what they did last night right in the nick of time as they look to keep challenging for that all important Champions League spot.
Neto was superb playing as the number 9 and as well as getting his goal, he has explained why he loves playing as a striker with a hilarious answer!
Sanchez is not good enough, we all know that, and there are also some question marks over Jorgensen now too.
Chelsea still linked with new goalkeepers
At the weekend, there was a bizarre set of briefings clearly sent out by Chelsea telling journalists they were not looking to sign a new goalkeeper and the four they have on their books will compete for the number one spot. All these journalists reported the news at exactly the same time, in almost the same wording. A clear club brief.
But now, according to GIVEMESPORT, one of the outlets who also reported said briefings above at the time, ironically, are reporting in an exclusive article that Chelsea are refusing to rule out the possibility of attempting to sign Bart Verbruggen when the transfer window reopens in the summer as the Brighton & Hove Albion star is on their radar as they contemplate luring a new first-choice goalkeeper to Stamford Bridge.
You couldn’t make this up!
