Chelsea boss Enzo Maresca has reportedly asked for a 32-year-old Premier League goalkeeper to be his new number one.
The news comes after Chelsea beat ES Tunis 3-0 early on Wednesday morning in the Club World Cup in America after Blues head coach Enzo Maresca named a rotated starting Xl to rest a few players.
Chelsea needed to avoid a defeat to progress to the knockout rounds of the competition, and they did that with ease in the end against an opposition that they were just much better than in terms of quality.
Marc Cucurella got a deserved rest in the game, with Josh Acheampong starting at left back instead, but before the game, the Spanish international was expecting another tough game. But it was far from that for Chelsea in the end.
They are being linked with and trying to sign far too many new goalkeepers this summer to not want to sign a new one. We keep hearing that they are happy with what they’ve got, but this is clearly the club trying to play it down so they don’t look desperate to sign a new one.

According to local broadcaster Christian Martin, Enzo Maresca wants Aston Villa goalkeeper as his new number one.
Martin says:
“Chelsea wants Emiliano Martínez as their starting GK, and Enzo Maresca has asked! Willy Caballero has also given the go-ahead. The player wants to stay in England, so it’s an option for Chelsea.”
Martinez would be a great signing for Chelsea and his experience and mentality at the back would be a huge addition for them.
