DBasia.news – After officially appointed Maurizio Sarri as the successor of Antonio Conte, Chelsea only recruited two prominent players. The first is Jorginho, with the £57M transfer fee.

Next, Chelsea also decided to let go of their main goalkeeper, Thibaut Courtois to Real Madrid. The club moved quickly to sign Kepa Arrizabalaga from Athletic Bilbao. Moreover, The Blues also made him as the world’s most expensive goalkeeper with 80 million euro transfer fee.

Without waiting too long, Kepa becomes the main goalkeeper of the team and shows the improvement in every match. Most of the time, the Spanish goalkeeper also did the excellent savings that presented three points for Chelsea.

Seeing the impressive performance of Kepa Arrizabalaga, his teammate Eden Hazard gave an interesting comment. The Belgium player is impressed with the performance of the goalkeeper who was the target of Real Madrid.

“They are top players for sure and Kepa, the goalkeeper – he is a fantastic young goalkeeper with a lot of quality,” Hazard said.

“When you bring this kind of guy into the team, the team is better for sure. We lost the best goalkeeper in the world but I think the team is better this year than last season and we can see it every weekend,” he added.

It’s not surprising Hazard gave such comment, apparently, Kepa is always becoming the main choice, including at the time when his team played in the Europa League. His position was irreplaceable when The Blues played in the League Cup competition.
