Chelsea is one of the big English Premier League clubs who have received high attention throughout the transfer market. The club, which is based at Stamford Bridge, underwent its inaugural transfer market with new management. Bruce Buck has stepped down from the position of CEO and Marina Granovskaia will soon be leaving her position as Director.
Currently Todd Boehly as a representative of the ownership consortium is involved in the transfer aspect of players. Chelsea have so far reached an agreement with Inter regarding the loan of Romelu Lukaku. The Blues hope that Lukaku’s return to Inter can trigger another transfer.
Foot Mercato reports that Kepa Arrizabalaga could be one of the players to leave Chelsea. The player who plays as a goalkeeper was included in one of the expensive recruitments that failed at Stamord Bridge. Kepa was brought in for a transfer value of 80 million euros from Athletic Club.

But his position has been eliminated by Edouard Mendy. Now Kepa is claimed to be in the sights of Nice, who have lost Walter Benitez. Nice has a connection with Chelsea, with the presence of Marcin Bulka, a former Blues goalkeeper who was released to PSG.
Kepa’s potential move to Ligue 1 depends on whether he is interested in continuing his career in France. The 27-year-old player needs more playing time in order to maintain his chances of getting into the Spain national team squad that will take part in the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.
