Como is among the teams looking into Robert S\u00e1nchez as a possible goalkeeper option, as uncertainty looms over the Chelsea goalkeeper’s future.<\/p>\n

Softfootball reports that S\u00e1nchez could leave Chelsea this summer, with multiple clubs examining the potential terms of a transfer.<\/p>\n

The interest from Como arises as goalkeeper Tornqvist seems set to move to Monza, leading to a potential need for another player in goal.<\/p>\n

Nonetheless, the club’s immediate focus remains on acquiring a striker, with plans for a goalkeeper being reviewed only after their attacking strategies are settled.<\/p>\n

Chelsea has already taken steps to bolster their goalkeeper position with the impending signing of Emiliano Mart\u00ednez from Aston Villa.<\/p>\n

Three days ago, Softfootball reported that Chelsea had reached a verbal agreement with Villa for Mart\u00ednez in a deal worth \u00a37.5 million, following Aston Villa’s acquisition of Zion Suzuki from Parma.<\/p>\n

The decision to sign Mart\u00ednez comes after a challenging start to the season for S\u00e1nchez, whose initial mistakes have intensified calls for Chelsea to enhance their goalkeeping options.<\/p>\n

In their last match, Chelsea upheld their unbeaten record under Xabi Alonso with a thrilling 4-3 win over Brighton at Stamford Bridge. However, the match proved more taxing than the score suggested, as Brighton applied significant pressure. Emiliano Martinez played a vital role, making several key saves to deny Fabian Hurzeler\u2019s team a comeback.<\/p>\n

Mart\u00ednez\u2019s impending arrival might speed up S\u00e1nchez\u2019s exit, with Como now keeping an eye on his status.<\/p>\n

The acquisition of the seasoned Argentina international indicates that S\u00e1nchez may not feature in Xabi Alonso\u2019s future plans.<\/p>\n

Currently, Como is reviewing the goalkeeper’s availability while prioritizing their search for a forward. Several other clubs are also interested, suggesting S\u00e1nchez\u2019s situation could change rapidly as the transfer window nears its end.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
