Chelsea goalkeeper Kepa Arrizabalaga is reportedly set to remain at Stamford Bridge beyond the summer.
The Spaniard has endured mixed fortunes under Frank Lampard this season and lost his place inbetween the sticks to Willy Caballero before the coronavirus suspension.
Chelsea had allegedly been eyeing up Ajax goalkeeper Andre Onana as a potential replacement, but given the current financial climate, the Blues will supposedly have to reassess their transfer strategy.
According to The Athletic, Chelsea have accepted that they will not find a suitable buyer for Kepa this summer, and as a result the 25-year-old will remain in the Premier League.
The report also claims that Kepa was not garnering much interest from abroad before the ongoing pandemic, despite suggestions that Valencia were keen on bringing the world's most expensive goalkeeper back to La Liga.
Kepa has managed six clean sheets in 25 Premier League outings this term.
