Has it really come to this?
Since the 2019 / 2020 season was so rudely interrupted by the COVID-19 pandemic, speculation has been rife that Chelsea could be set to call time on the Stamford Bridge career of Kepa Arrizabalalga.
Indeed, it is a subject that have previously covered – speculation-grows-as-to-who-will-be-between-the-sticks-for-chelsea-next-season – with the response, from our readership, being somewhat mixed as to whether Kepa should, or should not, be between the posts for Chelsea next season.
However, according to The Express the situation is set to come to a head.
With the 2019 / 2020 season set to restart, very shortly, the indication from our source is that the 25-year-old Spaniard has the nine remaining games of the current season to prove he is the man for the job, next season.
Personally, I’m hoping that Kepa has nine blinders and silences his doubters and that the defence he plays behind gives him the protection he deserves, something that has been lacking somewhat at times this season.
