Mikel Arteta's side previously explored a possible move for Espanyol's Joan García but he is now expected to join their cross-city rivals Barcelona.

Kepa spent the previous campaign on loan with Bournemouth, making 31 outings in all competitions, after a similar spell at Real Madrid just 12 month earlier.

The 30-year-old's current contract at Stamford Bridge contains a £5m release clause which reflects his diminished status with the Conference League winners.
