CHELSEA are struggling to flog keeper Kepa Arrizabalaga this summer, according to reports.
Boss Frank Lampard is open to cashing in on the Spaniard despite arriving for a record £71.6million fee just under two years ago.
Kepa, 25, has struggled for consistency in the Premier League since his arrival and was even axed by Lampard for six matches earlier in the campaign.
He still has four years left on his contract which means the Blues are demanding big money to let him leave.
Chelsea have been searching for any potential suitors across Europe but ESPN write how there has been little interest.
It will hinder Lampard’s transfer plans when the window opens.
The boss was hoping to land a new keeper with No2 Willy Caballero heading for the exit door on a free transfer.
Kepa will not want to play second fiddle and Lampard would not be willing to have the club-record signing sat on the bench.
He could be one of eight big-name stars set to be axed by Lampard in the summer.
Among those now in danger of being eased out are England midfielder Ross Barkley and midfielder Jorginho.
Also under the microscope in the final stages of the season are Kurt Zouma, Willian, Pedro, Marcos Alonso and Emerson as Lampard prepares to get tough with the established names.
