Premier League: Frank Lampard says new goalkeeper Edouard Mendy not yet ready to make debut

Firstpost  

Mendy joined Chelsea from French club Rennes on a five-year contract this week, strengthening Lampard’s goalkeeping options following Kepa Arrizabalaga’s dismal form. London: Frank Lampard has revealed Chelsea’s new goalkeeper Edouard Mendy is not ready to make his debut in Saturday’s Premier League clash at West Bromwich Albion. That leaves the door open for Kepa, who was at fault for goals in Chelsea’s first two Premier League games against Brighton and Liverpool, to be handed one last chance to save his job. “He flew in yesterday, it just feels too tight of a turnaround to put him in contention to start the game.” Mendy’s £22 million move could well spell the end of Kepa’s reign as Chelsea’s number one.
