Chelsea have decided against entering the market for a goalkeeper in the upcoming January transfer window, according to Sky Sports journalist Kaveh Solhekol.

Their confidence stems from the performances and potential of the three stoppers currently on their books, all seen as capable of being the club’s long-term No.1.
Sánchez, who joined from Brighton, has been praised for his shot-stopping and composure. His start to the season has been largely positive, capped by winning the Best Goalkeeper award at the FIFA Club World Cup.
While his red card against Manchester United drew criticism, sources close to Stamford Bridge insist that Sánchez has significantly reduced his errors compared to last season and continues to develop under the coaching staff.

He is viewed as a key player for the future and has been closely mentored to ensure a smooth transition should Sánchez ever be unavailable.
