Frank Lampard refused to confirm whether the world’s most expensive keeper Kepa Arrizabalaga would be staying or going in January.

The Blues boss said: “Well at the moment he’s our player and I think the situation is clear. Edou’s [Mendy] come in, he’s been playing regularly as the No1 for us.

“And when Kepa has come in he did well, and he’s trained really well. His attitude around the place has been brilliant.

“So I won’t be drawn on that one at the moment, he’s our player, we’ll see how January goes.

“But I don’t want to be alluding to what might or might not be.”
