CHELSEA SIGN NEW GOALKEEPER
Read Time:56 Second
Chelsea Football Club are poised to welcome their eighth goalkeeper to the squad following a £17m agreement with Genk for the transfer of Mike Penders.
At just 19 years old, Penders represents both a significant investment in future potential and immediate backup for Chelsea’s goalkeeping needs.
Having made his senior debut for Genk in July, he quickly marked himself as one of the brightest prospects in Belgian football.
Penders will ink a long-term deal with Chelsea but will remain at Genk on loan for the upcoming season, allowing him further development in a familiar setting.
Chelsea’s recruitment drive doesn’t stop with Penders. The club has been particularly active this transfer window, marking Penders as their 10th summer signing.
Total expenditure has now surpassed the £150 million mark, highlighting the club’s aggressive approach to building a team capable of competing on all fronts.
This strategy is further evidenced by their recent acquisition of Filip Jorgensen from Villarreal for £20.7m, and the expected arrival of Atletico Madrid striker Samu Omorodion for £34.5 million, Chelsea are clearly committed to reinforcing its lineup extensively.
