Arsenal is nearing the completion of a transfer deal for Chelsea goalkeeper Kepa Arrizabalaga for 5 million. Renowned journalist Fabrizio Romano has reported that Kepa has successfully completed his medical examination at Arsenal, signaling that the transfer is moving forward with only a few formalities left. Kepa, needing a fresh start after mixed success at Chelsea, serves as a valuable backup option for Arsenal's first choice keeper, David Raya, following a solid loan spell at Bournemouth last season.
Arsenal are edging closer to finalising the transfer of Chelsea goalkeeper Kepa Arrizabalaga in a 5m deal, according to Fabrizio Romano. Posting on his official account on X, formerly Twitter, Romano stated that Kepa had completed his medical with Arsenal.
Kepa looks like a smart signing for Arsenal, with the Gunners in need of an experienced and solid backup behind first choice keeper David Raya.
Although things didn't quite work out for Kepa at Chelsea, he impressed on loan at Bournemouth last season, and also previously earned himself a Champions League winners' medal whilst on loan at Real Madrid.
Arsenal have had a lot of goalkeepers under current manager Mikel Arteta, with Bernd Leno being the first choice when he first took over from Unai Emery.
