Chelsea to pay £70m to sign 'giant goalkeeper'

Chelsea are considering a move to bring a world-class goalkeeper to the Premier League, with a fresh report revealing that he'd be open to joining the club next summer.

Chelsea's goalkeeping situation

Over the summer, Todd Boehly and Mauricio Pochettino sanctioned the permanent sale of Edouard Mendy who joined Saudi Pro League side Al-Ahli, while Kepa Arrizabalaga put pen to paper on loan with La Liga’s Real Madrid for the remainder of the season.

The Blues therefore purchased New England Revolution’s Djordje Petrovic and Brighton’s Robert Sanchez to replace them, and even though the latter has nailed down a regular spot in the starting line-up, the owner is still on the lookout for a permanent number one.

AC Milan’s Mike Maignan has been highlighted as a possible target who would fit the bill, with the shot-stopper having made a total of 84 appearances since joining his side from Lille back in 2021 (Transfermarkt - Maignan statistics).
