Chelsea goalkeeper Sanchez joins Como on loan
Chelsea goalkeeper Robert Sanchez joins Como on a season-long loan after losing his starting spot to new arrival Emi Martinez.
Chelsea goalkeeper Robert Sanchez has been loaned out to Como on a season-long deal following his removal from the starting lineup. The Spaniard's departure comes after a series of errors in recent performances, including a lapse against Fulham where he allowed a shot to slip through his grasp. Chelsea's decision to sign Argentina goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez from Aston Villa for £7.5 million also played a role in Sanchez's move.
Despite being Chelsea's first-choice goalkeeper since joining from Brighton in 2023, Sanchez made 112 appearances and claimed titles such as the Conference League and the Club World Cup. Como, managed by former Chelsea midfielder Cesc Fabregas, has the option to purchase Sanchez for £47.1 million at the end of the loan.
