Report: Chelsea identify two targets as they look to sign Enzo Maresca a new goalkeeper Chelsea have identified Zion Suzuki and James Trafford as targets as they search for a new number one goalkeeper according to reports. The Blues are set for a busy summer once again with the club looking to sign a striker, centre back and right footed attacker to bolster Enzo Maresca's squad.

Zion Suzuki and James Trafford goalkeeper targets Whilst a striker is the main priority fans would love to see the Blues sign a new goalkeeper this summer, with continued doubts over Robert Sanchez. The Spaniard isn't the most popular figure with supporters and no goalkeeper has made more errors leading to goals in the league than the 27-year-old. Trafford kept 29 clean sheets in the Championship this season.

The report adds Trafford is valued at around £40m and he kept 29 clean sheets in 45 Championship appearances this season. TEAMtalk add sources say current goalkeepers Sanchez, Djordje Petrovic and Filip Jorgensen have failed to fully convince.
