John Obi Mikel, the ex-Chelsea midfielder, has called for the club to find a new goalkeeper, suggesting that Robert Sanchez should be replaced this summer. The former Super Eagles captain believes that Chelsea cannot secure any trophies next season if Sanchez remains their starting goalkeeper. “Many Chelsea supporters would agree that we require a better goalkeeper since Sanchez isn’t performing well,” Obi Mikel stated during a talkSPORT interview. “The issue with the goalkeeper needs to be addressed.” We cannot start the new season with Sanchez, I apologize. I believe that almost all Chelsea fans would concur that Sanchez is not the goalkeeper capable of bringing us titles. “Absolutely not.” In the previous month, Obi Mikel encouraged Chelsea to acquire Benfica’s goalkeeper Anatoliy Trubin. The ex-Nigeria international emphasized the necessity of signing Trubin for the upcoming season.
