In 2018, Chelsea made Kepa Arrizabalaga the world’s most expensive goalkeeper by paying Athletic Bilbao £71.6m for his services. Despite a promising start, Kepa’s time at Chelsea has been disappointing. With one year remaining on his contract, he has been training with players set for moves away from the club. Chelsea is eager to offload Kepa, and there has been interest from Serie A side Fiorentina.
Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti seemed to dismiss the possibility of Kepa returning to the club, stating that they are covered in the goalkeeper position, with praise for Kepa’s previous performance. A potential move to Real Madrid will depend on the future of Andriy Lunin. Lunin wants a bigger role in the coming season but has not signed a new contract, leading to speculation about his future. If Lunin leaves, it could open the door for Kepa’s return.
Reportedly, Chelsea is unlikely to demand a high transfer fee for Kepa, prioritizing getting his wages off the books. The text ends with an unrelated message about special offers, promotions, and privacy notice, which can be ignored in the technical rewriting of the given paragraphs.
