Brighton have agreed £25million from Chelsea for Spanish goalkeeper Sanchez
Chelsea fc have agreed a £25million deal with Brighton for goalkeeper Robert Sanchez.
Sanchez – who saw Jason Steele come in as Brighton’s number one during the latter half of last season – is set to join the Blues to offer competition for Kepa Arrizabalaga following the departure of Edouard Mendy to Saudi Arabian club Al-Ahli.
The transfer involves an up-front £25million payment, with an additional sell-on clause included.
Former Brighton goalkeepers trainer Ben Roberts will now work with Sanchez, 25, at Chelsea. Roberts left for Stamford Bridge in September 2022.
New Blues manager Mauricio Pochettino is in the process of overhauling his squad following the club’s worst season in almost 30 years.
Chelsea have also been linked with a move for Seagulls midfielder Moises Caicedo, with Brighton said to be looking for a £100m fee.
