Chelsea goalkeeper Kepa Arrizabalaga’s move to Bournemouth on a season-long loan has been confirmed. The deal is a straight loan with no option or obligation to buy, providing Kepa with an opportunity to showcase his talent at Bournemouth. As part of this move, the Spaniard has signed a one-year contract extension at Chelsea, reportedly on reduced terms. This marks an interesting turn in Kepa’s career as he links up with Cherries boss Andoni Iraola, with whom he played nine years ago at Athletic Bilbao.
At 29 years old, Kepa arrives at Bournemouth after spending last season on loan at Real Madrid. His experience at top clubs and the opportunity to work under the management of Andoni Iraola provide a promising outlook for his time at Bournemouth.
AFC Bournemouth’s chief executive, Neill Blake, expressed his enthusiasm about Kepa’s arrival, stating, “We are delighted to bring a player of Kepa’s calibre to AFC Bournemouth. We were aware of his availability and were keen to take the opportunity to bring him to the club on loan. We believe he will be an exciting addition to our talented goalkeeping department.”
This move not only signifies a significant change for Kepa but also adds an intriguing dynamic to AFC Bournemouth’s team, as they welcome a player of Kepa’s stature to bolster their squad for the upcoming season.
