Chelsea 'settle' on no. 1 goalkeeper target — yes, it's him

Evening Standard

The Italian side are demanding £50m for the 27-year-old and Chelsea are preparing to launch the first bid in the coming days.

'Chelsea need to get this guy': fans in love with Andre Onana after Champions League final

 are said to be looking for a new goalkeeper, with the futures of 

 unclear. One of the keepers linked with a summer move to the Bridge is 

The 27-year-old starred for the Italian side in their 1-0 loss to 

 in the Champions League final, impressing fans with his leadership, composure and distribution.

Here are a few takes from Chelsea fans from Twitter.

: "Onana is a great goalkeeper in his own right but we are desperate for leaders at Chelsea with the new squad that we're building. We need this type of leadership next season."

: "Chelsea have been interested in Onana more than any other goalkeeper this window & after a great performance last night and an overall good season, you can see why"

: "I need to be honest about Onana, yesterday I was moved. I’m on the Onana ship."

Jackson Chelsea: "I love Onana confident on the ball, Chelsea needs to get this guy."

: "Andre Onana impressed me last night with his world-class distribution and good shot stopping. He would be a great option for Chelsea."

: "Between Onana and Maignan, I will take Onana at Chelsea. He's different class on the ball, turns defence into attack with one simple pass. Unreal vision and press resistant. And it's not like Maignan is miles better than him at shot-stopping. He's cheaper too."

: "Appreciate Chelsea going for André Onana. He's impressed me several times this season including last night. Been following him for a long time. He has incredible ball distribution and shot-saving abilities. I would like him to see him in a Chelsea shirt."

It's unclear whether the money would be involved in such a deal. Chelsea's stance on such an arrangement is not known either.

Onana features highly on Chelsea's goalkeepers' shortlist. One of their ideas was to exchange him for Kepa or Edouard Mendy with an extra payment.

You are referring to Mendy of the past.Let. helsea sign a goal keeper who is good at both his feet and hand.

Adebayo Adegboyega

Kepa played excellently last season. After Thiago he was our second most effective player.

Robert Smith

Peters Frank

His form was such that I would keep him and spend on outfield players whilst getting rid of the substandard players.

forget about signing goal keeper keep Mendy he is a good goal keeper once the team start doing well he regain his form. keeper is not our problem, now that we have a good coach just get some good players then sell dead wood. we are good to go

Peters Ighodaro

God bless you for this comment. Same thing I’ve been saying in here for a long time. Our major problem is not a goal keeper, I don’t just understand why this board or whoever is responsible for signings are busy chasing keepers. This was the same thing they were doing when Tuchel was still here, busy chasing defenders throughout the transfer window. I don’t understand this club anymore.

Amen and may God bless you too brother.. If Onana was here this previous season with our defense I'm 101% sure that he'd faced the same challenges. Look at Inter Milan and check their defenders work rate likewise other big clubs that did wonders.

Oba Akande

If Onana come and make it as the best goalkeeper in EPL next season and probably flop for some games in 2024/25 hope you guys will still stand by him? 
I remember when 99.9% of Chelsea fans were singing Mendy praises even during the club world cup when he finished and won the Nations Cup and still won Fifa Club World cup. 
The team totally flopped last season especially the defensive line and you're thinking Mendy is the problem even when he had shoulder/Finger injuries. 
Don't be surprise if Mendy leaves and get his form back.
What Chelsea FC needs now is to reorganize the defense and renovate the leakages in the team

we need to be able to off load a keeper  too
