<p>The London club are closing in on a deal with the Spanish side, the journalist <a href="https://x.com/FabrizioRomano/status/1816768949016482091" target="_blank">reports,</a> having <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/chelsea-next-goalkeeper-eur25m-stopper-transfer-competition-marseille/bltecc55e6525560139" target="_blank">improved on their initial €20 million (£17m/$22m) offer</a> that was turned down by the Yellow Submarine. The two clubs are now in advanced talks to determine the structure of the deal.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>Jorgensen and Chelsea have already reached an agreement over a contract, as the Blues have fought off competition from Marseille to convince the 22-year-old to make the move to Stamford Bridge. Arsenal, Liverpool and Manchester City <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/arsenal-man-city-liverpool-goalkeeper-battle-premier-league-villarreal-filip-jorgensen/bltf537fb5a24550c95" target="_blank">were all linked with the shot stopper earlier this year</a>.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>Jorgensen progressed through the Villarreal youth academy and spent just one season as the team's first choice goalkeeper, helping them to an eighth-place finish in La Liga in 2023-24. Last month, he signed a new contract with the club that runs until 2029, but he seems set to leave in the coming days.</p>

DID YOU KNOW?

<p>Chelsea have been in the market for a new goalkeeper to offer competition for Robert Sanchez. They had also been <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/goalkeeper-andriy-lunin-chelsea-agent-jorge-mendes-real-madrid-premier-league/blt18ab1c00d8e534da" target="_blank">linked with Real Madrid's Andriy Lunin</a>, who enjoyed a successful season in Spain after Thibaut Courtois was ruled out for much of the campaign with an injury.</p>
