A series of head-turning updates surrounding the future of Chelsea star Kepa Arrizabalaga have come to the fore online on Thursday evening.

This, of course, comes amid mounting claims that the Spaniard is in line for a Stamford Bridge departure.

After the powers that be at Stamford Bridge, last weekend, sanctioned a swoop for Brighton & Hove Albion standout Robert Sanchez, the widespread understanding was that Kepa and Sanchez were primed to battle it out for no.1 duties under the watch of Mauricio Pochettino this coming season.
