Premier League
The Chelsea continues to strengthen its squad for the upcoming season and has set its sights on Borussia Dortmund's goalkeeper, Gregor Kobel. According to several sources close to the English club, the "Blues" have made an offer of 55 million euros for the Swiss goalkeeper, a significantly higher amount than his current market value, which is around 40 million, according to Transfermarkt.
Kobel, 27, has been one of the most reliable points in Dortmund's defense in recent years. With his great ability between the posts and quick reflexes, the goalkeeper has proven to be crucial in the German team's system, earning an excellent reputation in the Bundesliga. His performance has attracted the interest of several European clubs, but Chelsea seems to be the one showing the most interest in signing him this summer.
With the potential signing of Kobel, he would become their tenth goalkeeper signing.
The London club, which has already invested significant sums of money in the goalkeeping position, would be willing to exceed the player's valuation to secure his signing. Although the 55 million offer is yet to be accepted by Dortmund, negotiations are expected to progress swiftly in the coming weeks, especially if the English club is determined to enhance their goalkeeping option.
Meanwhile, Kobel has been clear in his desire to continue playing at an elite club and further his career. The opportunity to join a Premier League giant like Chelsea represents a significant step for him, having already showcased his quality in a competitive league like the German one.
