Chelsea in talks to get Premier League deal done as Spaniard keen on move after talks
CHELSEA and Bournemouth has reportedly held talks over a deal for Kepa – and the Spaniard star is reportedly keen to make the move after holding talks with Cherries boss Andoni Iraola
At the beginning of last season Real Madrid made the shock decision to take Kepa to the Bernabeu on a season long loan after Thaibut Courtois picked up a serious injury which kept him out of action for most of the season.
The Spaniard had some decent performances for the La Liga Champions throughout the season – but he lost his spot between the sticks to Andriy Lunin towards the back end of the season and ultimately was sent back to the club once his loan deal expired.
The stopper was very keen to stay at Madrid and was hoping that some sort of deal could be sorted between the two clubs – but the Spaniards made the decision that they no longer wanted to keep hold of Kepa – and now he looks like a player that is lost in the wind.
There is, however, still interest from the Saudi Pro League, and the club are ready to sell Kepa for around £15 million – which would mean they take a big £57 million loss to get him out the door.
But now Bournemouth are now looking to seal a loan and boss Iraola has spoken to his fellow Spaniard to convince him to come.
Kepa has had assurances that he will be first choice keeper as is eager to move to the South coast and end his current nightmare.
