Bournemouth open to buying Kepa's contract from Chelsea

The loan of Spanish goalkeeper Kepa Arrizabalaga to Bournemouth came as a surprise to many. Chelsea's recent goalkeeper issues led to speculation that the "Blues" would recall the player. However, he might not return to Stamford Bridge.

Details: According to The Athletic, Bournemouth is ready to buy the goalkeeper's contract from Chelsea. Moreover, the fee for the "Cherries" won't be very high. It is reported that the loan agreement includes a buyout clause of six million euros.

This is far from the amount Chelsea paid for Kepa - 80 million euros, which was a world record for a goalkeeper at the time. Considering his release clause, the deal is not expected to be a problem for Bournemouth, although Kepa's salary might be an issue.

Reminder: It was previously reported that Chelsea is interested in signing Nottingham Forest's key defender Ola Aina.
