Chelsea submit first Jorgensen bid
The Blues are believed to be looking for a goalkeeper, winger and a striker. And it seems they have identified who they want as their new keeper.
It was reported last week that Chelsea were entering the market for a new goalkeeper. And they were believed to have a list of four options.
It appears Chelsea have identified their man, and Romano has reported they have submitted their first offer for Jorgensen worth in the region of €20m.
Jorgensen is 22 years of age. So fits the club’s age profile, and stats show he prevented the most goals in La Liga last season, and Chelsea clearly feel he ticks the boxes of what they are looking for in a keeper.
