WHAT HAPPENED?

Despite the club signing Robert Sanchez from Brighton last summer, new manager Enzo Maresca wanted to bring in a new custodian to compete with the Spaniard for the No.1 spot in the upcoming season.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

Jorgensen graduated from Villarreal's 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 had even signed a new contract with the club that runs until 2029, however, he is now on his way to Stamford Bridge.
