Chelsea hero Franck Leboeuf has launched a furious attack on goalkeeper Kepa Arrizabalaga.

After his howler in defeat to Liverpool, Chelsea are binging in Rennes keeper Edouard Mendy in a £22m deal and Willy Caballero is set to play against Barnsley in the Carabao Cup on Wednesday, which means Kepa is out in the cold after another howler against Liverpool.

France World Cup winner Leboeuf told ESPN: “He cannot play, his head is on another planet.

"He doesn't feel football, he doesn't even live football, he's just wondering if he is still a goalkeeper. He shouldn't play, he should see a shrink.

“It's maybe the first mistake from Frank to keep putting Kepa in goal. The guy has lost his confidence completely.

“It reminds me of Fernando Torres. But when you're a striker, you miss a chance and they give him another game. But with a keeper you make a mistake and you concede a goal.

“Comparing to Kepa, Mendy is much better than that and has had a very good season at Rennes and much better than Kepa.

"For that money, Mendy is a very good keeper, he's much taller, very agile and better at Kepa at the moment."
