Chelsea have reportedly identified three possible transfer targets as they look to bolster their options at goalkeeper.

Kepa Arrizabalaga and Edouard Mendy have shared the number one duties over the past few seasons, with the Spaniard inheriting the gloves under new boss Graham Potter.

However, the Blues aren't yet convinced by either player and have been searching the market for possible alternatives.

Despite their poor form this season, Chelsea have actually been fairly impressive at the back, with only Newcastle United, Arsenal and Manchester City conceding less than their 21 in the Premier League. The attack has been the issue, which is why Todd Boehly has splashed the cash in January to sign David Datro Fofana, Mykhailo Mudryk and Noni Madueke, while several others have arrived in different areas of the pitch.

Malo Gusto is set to join this summer to become a back-up option to Reece James, Andrey Santos and Benoit Badiashile have both joined this month, leaving goalkeeper and central midfield as two clear areas to address.

Moises Caicedo wants to leave Brighton & Hove Albion, but Arsenal appear to be leading the race to sign him, while Chelsea angered Benfica in their earlier attempts to sign Enzo Fernandez, leaving their midfield hunt slightly up in the air.

However, CBS Sports reporter Ben Jacobs has reported that Chelsea are after three different goalkeeper targets as they look to freshen up that area on the field.

Which goalkeepers do Chelsea want to sign?

According to Jacobs, the Blues' will look at the situation in the summer, but it revolves around whether either Kepa or Mendy are satisfied being a long-term number two.

Either way, Brentford's David Raya, Brighton's Robert Sanchez and Everton's Jordan Pickford are all admired by Chelsea, who could push to sign one of them this summer.
