Chelsea’s roster just got a boost with the acquisition of goalkeeper Filip Jorgensen from Villarreal, the club announced recently. The 22-year-old’s transfer, costing £21 million, swiftly saw him jet off to the United States to join Enzo Maresca’s training camp.
Jorgensen’s arrival is part of Maresca’s strategy to fine-tune Chelsea’s style of play, emphasizing a strong ability to build from the back.
He wasted no time integrating Jorgensen into training at Pace Academy in Atlanta, where the young goalkeeper joined drills right after finalizing his move.
With Jorgensen now in the mix, Chelsea faces decisions on their existing goalkeepers, including finding a new club for Kepa Arrizabalaga, who spent last season on loan at Real Madrid.
Djordje Petrovic, nursing an injury, stayed back at Cobham, potentially altering the team’s goalkeeper lineup.
Looking Ahead
As the new season approaches, Chelsea’s focus sharpens on their Premier League opener against Manchester City on August 18. Amidst their pre-season fixtures, they’ve drawn with Wrexham and faced a defeat against Celtic, with a match against Club America slated for Wednesday.
Enzo Maresca, eager to mold his squad to his vision, is steering preparations towards a promising start in the upcoming campaign.
