CHELSEA have reportedly contacted three different goalkeepers ahead of the summer transfer window.

It comes with the club expected to make a change to their goalkeeper roster this summer.

According to the Evening Standard, Chelsea have conteacted the representatives of three goalkeepers ahead of the summer transfer window.

Brentford’s David Raya, Inter Milan’s Andre Onana and Borussia Dortmund keeper Gregor Kobel are apparently the trio the Blues are looking at.

Reports in Georgia suggest Valencia goalkeeper Giorgi Mamardashvili is also of interest.

Current options Kepa Arrizabalaga and Edouard Mendy may find themselves being booted from the team with the Blues likely to assess their options in goal at the end of this season.

Mendy was the preferred keeper under manager Thomas Tuchel, with the Senegalese keeper going on to win the Champions League, taking over from a flagging Kepa.

However, Kepa overtook Mendy as the No1 earlier this season, and didn’t have much competition as Mendy has had to recover from a broken finger.

But the Spaniard’s form has been inconsistent of late, with mistakes allowing Real Madrid to score twice in their Champions League tie on Wednesday.

According to reports, there is a feeling that Kepa may not be worth his £190,000-a-week salary, and if a good offer comes in then Chelsea may well let him go.

There has also reportedly been a breakdown in contract negotiations between Chelsea and Mendy, who has two years left with the team.

He wants to match Kepa’s wages, but the club seem reluctant to grant him that much.
