In an interview with The Athletic, former Chelsea goalkeeping coach Lollichon revealed he recommended Cech as the top replacement for Thibaut Courtois, but Sarri insisted on Kepa after one strong game against Napoli, leading to an €80 million deal that backfired amid Kepa's struggles and the infamous 2019 League Cup final defiance. Lollichon, who also spotted Edouard Mendy, now praises 20-year-old Mike Penders—signed from Genk in 2025 and impressing on loan at Strasbourg—as clever, proactive, and the potential fix for Chelsea's long-unsettled goalkeeper spot. With Robert Sánchez facing scrutiny, Penders could challenge for the No. 1 role next season.
