Chelsea’s constant struggles in the goal reached the key point, and the manager of Enzo Maresca confirmed that his goalkeeper was from the first choice, which is considered to be Robert Sanchez-on indefinitely rejected.
The club’s extravagant consumption has brought more headaches in recent years than solutions, and the goalkeeper’s position was a great thing.
Because Blueco Group Todd Boehly took over in 2022, Chelsea dropped more than EUR 1.2 billion on transfers, including only 80 million euros on goalkeepers only. Still, they still lack a prominent presence between sticks. Now Maresca has decided to shake things up, sitting Sanchez in favor of Philip Jorgensen, who was retained as another choice until this moment.
Sanchez arrived at Stamford Bridge for 23 million euros in 2023 and began as a number one club in the beginning. However, after a series of high mistakes, he lost his initial place from Djordje Petrovic last season. The same cycle repeated this year, and Sanchez has now headed for Jorgensen.
Jorgensen, joined by Villarreal last summer for 20 million eurosHe first presented himself at the CUP competitions, as part of the club ‘B team’, but he was given a chance to win Chelsea 2-1 over West Ham. Maresca has now made it clear that the 22-year-old will continue as Chelsea’s number one in the foreseeable future.
Enzo Maresca admits that Robert Sanchez will have to fight for his place
Talking about her decision, Maresca explained: “I said that Filip was starting against West Ham that he had given Robert for a while to mentally and physically recover. But the idea is not to switch the goalkeeper’s game per game.”
“I talked to Robert a few days before West Ham when I made the decision to play Philip. Since then, I haven’t talked to him anymore, and the same is true of Philip. Both know the situation. That’s the decision for now and we’ll see what’s going on forward .
