Kepa Arrizabalaga’s record move from Athletic Bilbao to Chelsea for €80 million will remain at the top for some time, but the Blues obviously decided to get as close as possible to the record amount, as they are reportedly willing to sign Borussia Dortmund’s custodian, Gregor Kobel, and splash out €70 million for his transfer?!‼️ Chelsea are said to have significantly intensified their interest in Gregor Kobel. The English club is rumoured to be willing to pay up to 70 million euros.~ @BILD via @bvbnewsblog pic.twitter.com/Drc3ZhInSn— Vince™ (@Blue_Footy) February 3, 2025 Even though they signed five goalkeepers in the last two and a half years (Gabriel Slonina, Djordje Petrovic, Robert Sanchez, Mike Penders, and Filip Jorgensen) – the aforementioned Kepa would make six in total – it’s apparently not enough, as Bild claims the London side is very serious in their attempts to add the #7.Juventus opts for a panic buying at Stamford BridgeDortmund extended the deal with the Swiss last year, and the BVB had no intention of selling him, but if Chelsea indeed offered €70 million, it would be hard to say no. Although it’s more realistic for the deal to come through in June, the Bundesliga side has already reacted, signing the 23-year-old keeper from the Dutch Ajax – Diant Ramaj. Therefore, today or in June, Chelsea (which face West Ham tonight at 11 pm) will almost certainly have a new custodian. It only remains to be seen whether they’ll get rid of some of the ones that are already there…ENGLISH PREMIER LEAGUE – MATCHDAY 24Saturday Nott.Forest – Brighton 7-0 (3-0)/Dunk 12 og, Gibbs-White 25, Wood 32, 64, 69 pen, Williams 89, Silva 90+1/Bournemouth – Liverpool 0-2 (0-1)/Salah 30 pen. 75/Everton – Leicester 4-0 (3-0)/Doucoure 1, Beto 6, 45+2, Ndiaye 90/Ipswich – Southampton 1-2 (1-1)/Delap 31 – Aribo 21, Onuachu 87/Newcastle – Fulham 1-2 (1-0)/Murphy 37 – Jimenez 61, Muniz 82/Wolverhampton – Aston Villa 2-0 (1-0)/Bellegarde 12, Cunha 90+7/Sunday Brentford – Tottenham 0-2 (0-1)/Janelt 29 og, Sarr 87/Man Utd – Crystal Palace 0-2 (0-0)/Mateta 64, 89/Arsenal – Man.
