“Real reason i joined Chelsea” Kepa Arrizabalaga makes surprise revelation

When reports emerged that Thibaut Courtois had decided to call time on his spell with the Blues, there was unrest in the camp of the club’s fanbase. However, the supporters of the club are currently dazed and dilirious over the signing of Kepa Arrizabalaga from Atletico Bilbao.

Kepa is currently the most expensive goalkeeper in the World and he has revealed why he opted to join the Blues, according to reports.

‘It’s a very important decision for me, for my career, and also for my personal life.

‘So many things attracted me to the club, all the titles the club has won, the other players, the city, the English Premier League. It’s an accumulation of things, and I am very glad Chelsea has decided to trust me and to take me in as well.’ He said after sealing the deal.

Dubbed as a contract rebel, Courtois refused to extend his contract with the Blues even though he had only a year left on the deal. He claims to miss his family who are currently based in Madrid and he is expected to join Real Madrid before the close of the window.



As part of the deal for Courtois, Kovacic is expected to join Chelsea before the window is closed today.
