Chelsea is once again recruiting goalkeepers.
Italy's Football Italia reported on the 3rd (Korea time) 'AC Milan goalkeeper Mike Menyang has approved the offer to move to Chelsea'
Football Italy are said to have approved the move, with Manchester expected to be offered by Chelsea. Milan are considering Vanya Milinkovic-Savic as his replacement. There is currently no re-signing between Milan and Manyang. Chelsea will soon make an official offer, meaning Manyang will be able to leave Milan in the next few days.

Menyang is a goalkeeper who made his name by playing for Lille in 2015 after playing for the Paris Saint-Germain youth team. Menyang, who wore a Milan uniform in 2021, played as the top goalkeeper in Serie A in earnest. Last season, he scored 52 runs in 42 games, but also accumulated as many as 15 clean sheets. When Milan won the Serie A title in the 2021-202 season, they showed great defense with 21 goals in 32 league games.
However, Menyang has not been negotiated with Milan to renew his contract, and the possibility of a transfer is growing recently. It was Chelsea who paid attention to Meyang's future. Fabrizio Romano, an expert in the European football transfer market, said 'Enzo Maresca's contact began, evaluating Manyang as an ideal option. Chelsea kept an eye on him and approved Manyang as a priority.

If Menyang joins Chelsea, attention is also expected to be paid to the main character who will be in charge of Chelsea's goal for the next season. Chelsea has invested a considerable amount of money in recruiting goalkeepers over the past two years, and has reached saturation by recruiting nearly 10 goalkeepers, including Robert Sanchez, Georges Petrovic, Philippe Jorgensen, Mike Fenders and Gabriel Slonina.
If Menyang establishes himself as the main goalkeeper, existing resources have no choice but to be sorted out. However, it is unclear how to sell Sanchez, who was disappointed last season, and other players who did not play properly in the game.
Chelsea, which has put a lot of effort into recruiting goalkeepers, has again begun work to replace the goalkeeper. Attention is focusing on whether Menyang can be Chelsea's answer.
