Spain coach Enrique: Kepa in delicate moment at Chelsea

Spain coach Luis Enrique admits Kepa Arrizabalaga's problems at Chelsea are creating a headache for him.

Kepa is now strictly a reserve at Chelsea after the arrival and instant impact of new first-choice goalkeeper Edouard Mendy.

Enrique admits he'd prefer Kepa to be playing, but the Spain keeper has his support for now.

He said, "It is evident that I do not look at age or anything similar. Nor do I intend to convince anyone of my ideas.

"Kepa is in a delicate moment, and I will have to assess at the time. Playing affects the players, but I can always make an exception."
