Kepa Arrizabalaga sets record straight on Bournemouth future as Chelsea talks scheduled
Bournemouth would like to sign Chelsea loanee Kepa Arrizabalaga on a permanent transfer this summer following a successful loan spell this season but the Cherries do not have a buy-option included within the agreement
Kepa Arrizabalaga feels at home at Bournemouth – but he’s still not willing to provide any assurances his loan will become a permanent transfer this summer. The Spanish goalkeeper has revealed talks over his future are set to take place “in the next few weeks” with parent club Chelsea. He admits staying at the Vitality Stadium is not necessarily a formality, explaining: “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.”
