Pochettino told to get Chelsea deal done for £72M Spaniard – sign World class star

Mauricio Pochettino has been told to replace CHELSEA goalkeeper Kepa Arrizabalaga by Paul Merson

Edouard Mendy’s departure suggests that Pochettino has decided to stick with Arrizabalaga as his No. 1 next season but Merson believes Chelsea are ‘crying out’ for a new world class goalkeeper.

‘Chelsea are crying out for a new goalkeeper,’ Merson told Sky Sports. ‘You need a goalkeeper who is going to win you points. Having one can half move you up the league quickly.

‘David De Gea gets slaughtered at Manchester United for giving away points, but he gains a lot of points for them, he probably saves more points than he loses.

‘Chelsea’s midfield is crying out for reinforcements too. Everyone has gone.

‘They have got Enzo Fernandez and Conor Gallagher at the club, there is talk of Moises Caicedo coming in, but that is all they’ve got, potentially three midfield players, that is it.

‘As we sit here today, if Mauricio Pochettino gets Chelsea into the top four having only signed Caicedo, you would say he pulled up trees.’

There is a feeling at CHELSEA that they have world class stopper in the form of Kepa – and just need to believe that he can develop into the star that they need.

However – he has proven over the seasons that he is prone to an error – that he likes to make mistake – that the back-line do not trust him and he simply isnt good enough.

Chelsea do need to sign a world class stopper this summer and honestly if they managed to secure a transfer deal for De Gea it would be brilliant
