Chelsea are ready to sanction their first summer transfer under new manager Xabi Alonso, with goalkeeper Filip Jorgensen expected to leave Stamford Bridge.
The Blues are open to selling the Danish goalkeeper after he expressed his desire to leave the club in search of regular playing time, according to BBC Sport.
Jorgensen joined the Premier League side from Villarreal two seasons ago and was expected to challenge Robert Sanchez for the number one spot.
