OneMoSalah 8,886 Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 Good keeper. Pretty solid with his feat too which although means absolutely fuck all in terms of shot stopping, will be vital to Sarri in building the game from the back. 80m a bit steep. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dimitr 488 Posted August 7, 2018 Share Posted August 7, 2018 https://t.co/GGOmp3HF63?amp=1  Chelsea contacted Kepa this morning to tell him there willing to pay clause, now convincing him of project & to join, down to player, rejected madrid move before. Chelsea first contacted Oblak but he decided to stay.  Guessing reliable as Bilbao paper.  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manpe 10,861 Posted August 7, 2018 Share Posted August 7, 2018 Would not lose any sleep if we replace Tibo with him. Will not claim to know anything about him, but La Liga watchers fawn over him, so I tend to trust that judgement. Cool name too... Kepa.

akgw13 867 Posted August 7, 2018 Share Posted August 7, 2018 consider me extremely skeptical that we actually will pay this release clause. After slinking away from Alisson due to the cost, we will now go ahead and break that record? im doubtful. However as @manpe said, i don't know alot about him but the things being said online from people who watch him regularly are extremely positive. Would be happy to see him protecting our net.

The Chels 2,502 Posted August 7, 2018 Share Posted August 7, 2018 Hard to believe a board as stingy as ours would spend that much on a keeper. Much more likely to be Butland IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the wes 7,212 Posted August 7, 2018 Share Posted August 7, 2018 Athletic Bilbao’s Kepa Arrizabalaga is a goalkeeper target for Chelsea, Sky Sports News understands Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
!Hazard! 3,394 Posted August 7, 2018 Share Posted August 7, 2018 Why aren't we going for Cillessen. Would cost no more than £30m and in this moment in time he's about on the same level as Kepa (5 years older though so that might chance one day).

Special Juan 28,141 Posted August 7, 2018 Share Posted August 7, 2018 🚨 last minute 🚨 informs @AlbertoPereiro in the newsletter of the 16:00h that he @OndaCero_es https://www.ondacero.es/directo/ will make effective tomorrow the payment of the clause of Kepa Arrizabalaga, which amounts to 80 million of euros Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

akgw13 867 Posted August 7, 2018 Share Posted August 7, 2018 Could the board finally get the message and woken up? Shaping up to be a crazy 48 hours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So instead of Hazard sending the board into frenzy mode, it's Courtois who did it. If everything comes off, then we gotta thank him for being a bellend.

Pizy 18,916 Posted August 7, 2018 Share Posted August 7, 2018 Man, could we actually be about to panic buy some actual good players?! Could it be? Kepa + Kovacic and I'll feel great about our top 4 chances. Seeing transfer muppets on Twitter thinking we'd go after both Kovacic and Fekir. That ain't happening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd rather sign one of the very best GKs of the past three/four years in Oblak for €100m than a young, developing GK like Kepa for €80m. I'll have to assume Oblak has no interest in joining Chels.

He's at a stable club, consistently challenge for major honors and plays for a manager who is in control of everything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldportblue 547 Posted August 7, 2018 Share Posted August 7, 2018 and it we sell thibaut for 45M GBP (50M EUR), then the 80M EUR buyout fee for kepa doesn't sound quite as bad... really want this kid and the noises on twitter are positive on this for now 🤞 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
