Chelsea loanee Kepa Arrizabalaga refuses to commit to Bournemouth amid interest

Chelsea goalkeeper Kepa Arrizabalaga has revealed talks with his parent club amid strong interest and refused to commit his future to Bournemouth despite impressing on loan at the Premier League side

Kepa has revealed Chelsea talks are scheduled as the Spanish goalkeeper drops future hint amid an impressive spell on loan with the Cherries.

Kepa has recaptured his form at Bournemouth following a difficult spell with the Blues.

Bournemouth are reportedly keen to make the signing permanent this summer. Although his loan deal has no option to buy at the end of the season.

However, the 30-year-old shot-stopper has made no guarantees about his future, leaving his future open as Maresca struggles to settle on his No. 1 between the sticks.

In a recent interview, the Spaniard admitted talks about his future are scheduled with Chelsea in the coming weeks.

He said: “Obviously what I can say is that I’m really happy and I’m enjoying my playing time here.

“I think I’m showing that and I’m feeling well on the pitch.

“It’s not the time to think about the future, we’re going to take the decision, we’re in touch with everybody and now I’m under contract with Chelsea.

“We have some conversations to have, they will happen in the next few weeks and then we’ll decide.”

Kepa may wants to take his time in the summer to reassess his options, having had a torrid time at Stamford Bridge for a record fee worth €80m (£72m), for a goalkeeper.

Kepa spent a season on loan at Real Madrid before moving back to England, and he may feel he can take a step up after getting his form back in the Premier League.

Either way, the 30-year-old admits he is enjoying his time at the Vitality Stadium, and it seems unlikely that Kepa will stay at Chelsea beyond the summer.

His Blues contract is valid until the summer of 2026, leaving the West London side with minimum time to cash in on him if there are any suitable offers this summer.
