  "account": "Chelsea goalkeeper Robert Sanchez has signed a one-year loan deal with Italian Serie A club Como, the team announced on Tuesday. The 28-year-old previously moved from Brighton to Chelsea in 2023 but underperformed, leading to his recent switch. New Chelsea manager Xabi Alonso turned to Martinez, who made his debut in goal the next day. Como praised Sanchez's experience and suitability for their playing style. The Spanish keeper will reunite with former Chelsea defender Trevoh Chalobah, who also joined the club recently. Como, making their Champions League debut this season, also signed England international Moise Kean on loan from Everton and Juventus. Kean's potential transfer fee could reach €40 million (US$46 million).",
