Kepa Arrizabalaga wanted by his former Chelsea manager in a new transfer twist.
According to transfer news from Daily Star, former Chelsea manager Maurizio Sarri is interested on a reunion with Kepa at Lazio.
The new Lazio boss wants to bring the Chelsea fop to Italy and wants the Spaniard to be his No. 1.
Chelsea signed Kepa for a record £71.6million price in 2018 on a 7-year contract from Athletic Bilbao. But since then, he has failed to dazzle and is now below summer signing Edouard Mendy in the Chelsea pecking order.
But he has seen starts tough to come by, as the German gaffer continues to vest his trust in Mendy.

It seems like Kepa departing Stamford Bridge would be the best move for all parties. He would hope to see more game time wherever he goes while the club would have a massive wage packet excluded from the books.
It will come as some good report that former Chelsea boss Maurizio Sarri is keen to take Kepa. Sarri was recently named as Lazio’s manager and a reunion with Kepa might be on the cards.
The two worked together during the sole campaign Sarri was in charge at Stamford Bridge.
Mendy has generally performed well at Chelsea and the 29-year-old seems rooted enough to hold the fort at the back for the Blues.
The 26-year-old Kepa’s exit would not leave a massive void at the club but could raise a possible problem of having no second choice in goal.
In such circumstances, Tuchel would either have to promote someone from the youth team or dip into the transfer market.
