Kepa Arrizabalaga has had a very bumpy season to say the least.
He was terrible for months, then was dropped for the man who was supposed to just be a space filler on the bench.
He had just come back into the team for a couple of games when the season was called to a halt, leaving him and the club in limbo.
Do they go big for another keeper this summer? Do they sell Kepa? Do they give him another chance?
SportWitness say that the Basque stopper is banking on the latter option. They quote a story in Marca that claims he’s been telling friends that he’s forgotten any issues with Frank Lampard and is ready to fight for his place in the team.
It will be a long road back, but perhaps this break allows things to cool off a bit, and will mean an extra chance for the Spaniard to prove he’s not a flop after all.
