Chelsea manager, Enzo Maresca has come out to confirm that Filip Jorgensen is now the Blues’ No. 1 goalkeeper. This is coming as Robert Sanchez struggles for form, and fans have been reacting.
According to him, Jorgensen is the main goalkeeper at the club at this moment, and he hopes the decision will give Sanchez some time to recover mentally and physically.
Enzo added that he already discussed his decision with Robert, and he is fully aware he is down the pecking order.
His words, “I said that the Filip solution was also to give Robert some time to recover mentally and physically. But the idea is not to game by game change the keeper. In the last Premier League game, we had Filip and in the FA Cup, it was Robert. Our keeper at the moment is Filip.
I spoke with Robert a few days before West Ham where I took the decision to play Filip. I never spoke again with Robert. Filip, exactly the same. They know the situation. This is the situation now and then we will see.”
WOW.
Chelsea Football Club is an English professional football club based in Fulham, West London. Founded in 1905, they play their home games at Stamford Bridge.
The club competes in the Premier League, the top division of English football. They won their first major honour, the League championship, in 1955. The club won the FA Cup for the first time in 1970, their first European honour, the Cup Winners’ Cup, in 1971, and became the third English club to win the Club World Cup in 2022.
On 7 May 2022, Chelsea confirmed that terms have been agreed for a new ownership group, led by Todd Boehly, Clearlake Capital, Mark Walter and Hansjörg Wyss, to acquire the club. The group was later known as BlueCo.
The UK government approved the £4.25bn takeover, ending Abramovich’s 19-year ownership of the club. Bruce Buck, who served as chairman since 2003, was replaced by Boehly, while long-serving club director and de facto sporting director Marina Granovskaia left, as did Petr Čech from the role of technical and performance advisor.
