Real Madrid goalkeeper Kepa: Chelsea project 'not right'

Real Madrid goalkeeper Kepa Arrizabalaga has taken aim at parent club Chelsea.

Kepa left Chelsea last month for a season-long loan with Real.

"I felt it was time for a change of scenery," he told Cadena Cope yesterday.

"I wanted to stay, but I felt that the project was not the right one."

Kepa also said earlier this week: "Yes, it was very fast [move to Real Madrid].

"It's true that [Mauricio] Pochettino wanted me to stay and he told me that I was going to play, that he trusted me, but I thought that a change would be good for me, I wanted a change."
