Chelsea Switch Their Attentions When It Comes To A New Goalkeeper For The New Season

|

Yesterday, as the transfer speculation relating to a possible move to Chelsea for the Atletico Madrid goalkeeper, Jan Oblak, increased, we were quick to cover the gossip.

Our article – chelsea-target-set-to-consider-his-future-as-interest-in-his-services-mounts – covered the fact that the Slovenian keeper was considering his options.

This morning, The Daily Star are reporting that Chelsea, in order to ease the £110 million asking price the Spanish club want for their asset, Chelsea were set to offer Kepa Arrizabalaga in art-exchange for Oblak.

However, we are now reading, courtesy of The Daily Mail, that Chelsea, bearing in mind the huge asking price, have abandoned any plans to sign Oblak.

Instead they are, if our quoted source is correct, are now concentrating on obtaining the services of either the Ajax goalkeeper, Andre Onana or the Burnley goalkeeper, Nick Pope.

My preference would be a move for Pope who had an outstanding season for Burnley, but, out of the two names mentioned, who would you prefer?

With Oblak Deemed Too Expensive, Who Should Chelsea Instead Target?

Nick Pope

Andre Onana

      Comment
      Pope should come , because he has some premier league experience, . then Kepa should not be sold,. every goal keeper is always good as long as the defense is good too, that one I hope it was evidenced by yesterday’s game of Munich Vs Barca.!

  • Owolabi says:

    I thought Pope is one of the best keepers in EPL since 2 season back and I will like Chelsea to access this young guy it it’s fit in to Lampard style of play

  • nahshon says:

    chelsea should sign andre onana than pope. it is good and adviseable.oblak out of list because the need to strenthen their defenders. oblak is too expensive. and kepa should make second keeper or loan him.the should not sell him. warning.

  • Jibrin says:

    I am chelsea fanif i will choose between this two i will choose pope because he has experiance in premier league while onana is in experiance he is steal young but we need matual person in stick next season

  • Ibrahim Sesay says:

    Comment onana from Ajax is perfect replacement for kepa

  • Emeka kennedy says:

    Onana is good,lampard should sign him

  • Moses says:

    Comment onana didn’t experience the high pressure in English football so Pope is good for Chelsea team but Oblak he is too cost but kepa is a same example of former Liverpool keeper kepa should leave and every return back

  • jesse david says:

    a good stoper is a good stoper, forget about pl experien, onana is good.

  • Nezyranking says:

    Andre Onana is the best option for chelsea so forget about EPL experince, did Kepa had EPL experince at his first season at chelsea? Or liverpool shot stoper Allison Becker play in EPL before swicting to liverpool and won Golden Glove at is first season for liverpool? Pls bring Onana

  • ochoche says:

    Experience is better, i prefer pope than onana and oblak is too expensive, if not i prefer oblak, kepa should loan out or second choice.
