Chelsea 'agree fee for Brighton Robert Sanchez' with the out-of-favour Spanish goalkeeper set to undergo a medical 'immediately'

Chelsea have reportedly agreed a fee for Brighton's Spanish goalkeeper Robert Sanchez.

The Seagulls outcast is set to undergo a medical with the Blues immediately, according to the Athletic's David Ornstein.

Despite falling out of favour at the Amex Stadium, Sanchez could be set for a move to west London, where Chelsea see him as potential competition for current No 1 Kepa Arrizalabaga.

The Blues have been in the hunt for a new stopper since selling Senegal star Edouard Mendy to Al-Ahli earlier in the transfer window, with just Spain's Arrizabalaga left.
