Worried by their poor start to Premier League season, Chelsea have agreed a £14million deal for Serbia international goalkeeper Djordje Petrovic.
Backup keeper Marco Bettinelli is injured and 20-year-old Lucas Bergstrom is the only other remaining goalie at Chelsea’s disposal.
In addition to the loaned out keepers, the Blues sold Edouard Mendy to the Saudi Pro League this summer. Petrovic has been starring in the net for the Revolution ever since their previous keeper, Matt Turner, also left for the Premier League when he joined Arsenal in 2022. Turner is now with Nottingham Forest.
If the deal goes through, Petrovic would be the second MLS goalkeeper to join the West Londoners this season after Slonina moved from the Chicago Fire on New Year’s Day. Petrovic finished second in the running for 2022 MLS Goalkeeper of the Year, despite making only 21 appearances last season.
