Robin Roefs, Chelsea, Sunderland
18 May 2026
Chelsea are targeting a new goalkeeper and are seriously considering Sunderland’s Robin Roefs as part of their summer planning. The 23-year-old has emerged as one option while the club reviews changes after another difficult campaign at Stamford Bridge.
The rumour gives Chelsea a clear position-specific target rather than a vague market link. Roefs is named directly, and the goalkeeping search fits Chelsea’s wider rebuild as Xabi Alonso prepares to take over as manager.
