** with Sánchez as Chelsea’s No. 1?**
Chelsea is grappling with a significant goalkeeper dilemma, a situation that has persisted since left for
Real Madrid in 2018. In an attempt to fill the void left by the Belgian, the club made a record-breaking move for that same summer. However, Kepa's tenure at Chelsea has been marked by inconsistency, and he is currently on loan at Bournemouth. He is not the only goalkeeper to struggle in securing the No. 1 position at
Stamford Bridge.
Édouard Mendy has also come and gone, while
Robert Sánchez and have joined the ranks as Chelsea continues its search for a reliable successor to Courtois. Among these, Petrovic has shown the most promise, yet he has been sent out on loan to Strasbourg, further complicating Chelsea's goalkeeping situation.

Enzo Maresca continue to rely on Sánchez as the first-choice goalkeeper?
