Kepa sets record straight on Bournemouth future as Chelsea talks scheduled

Bournemouth wants to sign Chelsea loaner Kepa Arrizabalaga this summer on a permanent transfer this summer after a successful loan spell this season, but the cherries have not included Buy-Option in the agreement

Kepa Arrizabalaga feels at home in Bournemouth – but he is still not willing to offer guarantees that his loan will be a permanent transfer this summer. The Spanish keeper has unveiled conversations about his future that will take place “in the coming weeks” with Ouderclub Chelsea. Hij geeft toe dat het verblijf in het Vitality Stadium niet noodzakelijk een formaliteit is en legt uit: “Het is duidelijk dat ik kan zeggen dat ik echt gelukkig ben en dat ik hier van mijn speeltijd geniet. Ik denk dat ik dat laat zien en ik voel me goed op het veld. Het is niet de tijd om na te denken over de toekomst, we gaan de beslissing nemen, we gaan de beslissing nemen, we gaan in contact met iedereen en nu gaan ik in contact met iedereen en nu gaan ik in contact met iedereen en nu gaan we in contact With everyone and now we get in touch with everyone.

Bournemouth is supposed to keep Kepa and they would be willing to pay a credible fee to secure his signature after an impressive stint on the south coast this season. It is unlikely that the dual Champions League winner, now 30, has not been interested in the Saudi Pro League leaders Al-Eittihad also saw an offer that was rejected last summer. Kepa also ventilated his frustration after the ambitious cherries, who do not have an option to buy the Spain International, dropped two valuable points at West Ham. They walked ahead through Evanilson, but were fed back by the hosts who followed goals of Niclas Fullkrug and Jarrod Bowen before the Brazilian took his second, similar to 11 minutes from time. The result means that the side of Andoni Iraola has now only won one of their last eight Premier League matches and their European dream now depends on a thread. Kepa continued: “We are not very happy because we came here for all three points. In the end we got a point and we have to make a good point at home next week, but at the moment these points we have dropped in the last eight or nine games.

“The last game [Ipswich] They killed us with counterattacks and today we have given them the opportunities, two headers, we have to improve our defense. We have to mark better and stop these opportunities, we have to keep working, because we now have nine days to prepare for our next game. “Kepa, whose contract with Chelsea runs until the summer of 2026, insists that all hope is not yet lost, because he feels that there is still time to put things right. He concluded:” It has been a great season until now. Now it is the most important period of the season. “You can't find a team that always wins games without bad moments, not even Liverpool. We have to be strong, we now find it very difficult to get points at the moment. But if we don't start taking three points, it will be difficult to get ourselves in Europe.”
