EPL: He’s better than Sanchez, Jorgensen – Townsend advises Chelsea on goalkeeper to sign

Former Chelsea midfielder, Andy Townsend has advised the Blues to sign Liverpool back-up goalkeeper Caoimhin Kelleher in the summer transfer window.

According to Townsend, Kelleher is better than Chelsea’s two goalkeepers, Filip Jorgensen and Robert Sanchez.

He claimed that the 26-year-old Irishman is more reliable in the goal post compared to both Jorgensen and Sanchez.

“Caoimhin Kelleher is absolutely better than Filip Jorgensen and Robert Sanchez. He is more reliable than those two,” Townsend told OLBG.

“If Chelsea wants to seriously over the next two or three years have a real tilt at winning the Premier League and I think there is some way off that.

“But if they do, then they are going to need to get another goalie in. Kelleher has shown that in big moments in those cup wins for Liverpool, in big matches.

“He actually has a very understated way of performing as a goalkeeper.”

Kelleher was promoted to Liverpool’s senior team in 2019.
