Newcastle are 'eyeing a move for Chelsea goalkeeper Kepa Arrizabalaga', with the Blues 'ready to listen to offers around the £50m mark' for the most expensive shot-stopper EVER

Newcastle are monitoring Chelsea goalkeeper Kepa Arrizabalaga ahead of the summer transfer window, with the Blues reportedly ready to listen to offers in the region of £50million.

The 27-year-old has spent the last four seasons at Stamford Bridge since Chelsea forked out £72m on him in 2018, which remains a world record fee for a goalkeeper.

However, he has had to play second fiddle to Edouard Mendy for much of the last two campaigns.

Chelsea may now be prepared to offload him, and he could depart the west London club in the coming months if they receive a bid around the £50m mark for his services, according to the Daily Star.
