Filip Jorgensen, a goalkeeper on Chelsea’s radar, has expressed his delight over the buzz surrounding a potential transfer to the esteemed Premier League side.
With the arrival of Enzo Maresca, Chelsea is poised to delve into the transfer market to secure a leading goalkeeper.
- Ferguson named the most ‘annoying’ player he faced in 26 years as Man Utd boss
- Chelsea star blasts Pochettino over ‘trust’ & open to exit
- Paul Merson predicts where Chelsea & Man Utd will finish next season
Last season, under Mauricio Pochettino, both Robert Sanchez and Djorde Petrovic had opportunities as starters, yet neither solidified their position for the upcoming 2024/25 season.
Kepa Arrizabalaga is anticipated to return from his loan spell at Real Madrid, but it’s widely expected that he will leave Chelsea this summer.
In a surprising twist, Burnley’s James Trafford is rumored to be considered for a £20 million transfer to Stamford Bridge. Concurrently, there’s a growing interest from Chelsea’s management in Villareal’s Jorgensen.
A product of the club’s youth system, the Danish player made a significant leap to the first team last season, starting in 37 matches across various competitions.
At just 22 years old, Jorgensen, who has international experience at the Under-21 level, is honored by the attention he’s receiving from Chelsea.
‘It is fun. It shows that I have done something good and done it well,’ he told Danish outlet Tipsbladet.
‘It is hard to say [about his future]. I just want to get better every day and do the best I can. There is no definite plan.
‘If something good comes up, we can talk about it and look at what is best for me, for Villarreal and everyone involved.’
Chelsea appears on the verge of announcing their inaugural acquisition of the transfer season following Fulham’s announcement that centre-back Tosin Adarabioyo will be leaving the club.
The 26-year-old defender, who also caught the eye of Newcastle, is poised to join Chelsea without a transfer fee, a move that could potentially signal the exit of Trevor Chalobah from the squad.
