Chelsea are reportedly willing to part ways with Kepa Arrizabalaga for £50m during the summer transfer window.
Speculation has been rife surrounding the Spaniard's future in recent weeks, with Blues manager Frank Lampard adding fuel to the fire by benching Kepa for Willy Caballero on the final day of the Premier League season.
Caballero kept a clean sheet in Chelsea's final-day victory over Wolverhampton Wanderers as the Blues ensured Champions League qualification, and Lampard is reportedly desperate for Kepa to leave before the start of the 2020-21 campaign.
Chelsea made the Spaniard the world's most expensive goalkeeper when they forked out £72m to sign him from Athletic Bilbao in 2018, but the Daily Mail reports that Chelsea are prepared to take a financial hit to offload the shot-stopper.
The report claims that Lampard's side will not accept any offers below £50m for Kepa, although the Blues would be open to loan deals should the interested party agree to pay a large chunk of his salary.
Lampard is supposedly heading up Chelsea's search for a new number one, with a recent report claiming that the Blues had narrowed their shortlist down to Ajax's Andre Onana and Atletico Madrid's Jan Oblak.
