  • Chelsea have approached Villareal in a bid to sign goalkeeper Filip Jorgensen
  • 22-year-old shot-stopper made 37 appearances in all competitions last season
  • The Blues have also been linked with a move for Leicester's Mads Hermansen

Chelsea have asked about Villarreal goalkeeper Filip Jorgensen, as they assess a number of targets to compete with Robert Sanchez. 

Jorgensen served as the La Liga side's No 1 last season, making 37 appearances in all competitions as they narrowly missed out on a European place.

The 22-year-old is a regular for Denmark's Under-21 side, having previously represented Sweden at multiple youth levels.

Jorgensen is keen on joining Enzo Maresca's side with talks between the two clubs currently conducting discussions over a potential move.

Since succeeding Mauricio Pochettino in the Stamford Bridge dugout Maresca has set about bolstering his depth between the sticks, with Leicester goalkeeper Mads Hermansen also linked with the club.

Djordje Petrovic and Robert Sanchez arrived last summer from New England Revolution and Brighton respectively.

Sanchez initially served as the club's No 1 before a knee injury against Everton in December ruled him out for much of the remainder of the campaign.

Petrovic impressed in his absence and went on to make 31 appearances in all for the Blues, starting in their EFL Cup final defeat against Liverpool in February.

Chelsea also still have the sport's most expensive goalkeeper of all-time on their books.

Kepa Arrizabalaga spent last season out on loan at Real Madrid and there has been a host of clubs interested in securing his signature this summer as it appears increasingly unlikely he will remain in west London.

The Spain international has just one year remaining on his contract and has been training away from the first-team since reporting for pre-season at Cobham.

Interestingly, both Kepa and Jorgensen are being eyed by Saudi Pro League side Al-Ittihad, who have earmarked the stoppers as alternatives to Manchester City's Ederson. The Brazilian's fee could be deemed to expensive for the club to pursue.
