Are we really gonna buy that new goal-Kepa for £71 million?
Several sources are this evening reporting that Chelsea have agreed a world record deal with Athletic Bilbao for the transfer for goalkeeper Kepa Arrizabalaga. After Thibaut Courtois no-show in trainings yesterday and today it's quite obvious he won't play in a Chelsea shirt again.
If this affair goes through the 23 year-old he will become the most expensive goalkeeper ever in the history of football.
A couple of weeks ago Liverpool splashed £66.8 million to sign Allison Becker from Roma and it seems like that world-record could be history tomorrow.
So that leaves me with one question? Who's that Kepa? I have no idea, but google did have:
"A sureshot starlet for the future, Kepa was one of the standout goalkeepers in La Liga last season, and was also included in Spain’s 23-man squad for the World Cup in Russia this year. Though he only has the one cap so far to his name so far, he has been widely tipped as the national team’s next number 1."
Let's see if this really happens!
