Former Chelsea star Joe Cole has criticized the club’s goalkeeper transfer strategy, calling it fundamentally flawed.

Speaking on the Dressing Room podcast, Cole questioned how a club could have as many as nine goalkeepers and still struggle to identify a clear first-choice.

“There’s something systematically wrong because you can’t have nine goalkeepers on your books and not know which one is your number one,” he said.

Chelsea currently have four goalkeepers in their first-team squad: Robert Sanchez (27), Flip Jorgensen (22), Lucas Bergstrom (22), and Marcus Bettinelli (32). Meanwhile, Djordje Petrovic (25) and Kepa Arrizabalaga (30) are out on loan, and Genk’s Mike Penders (19) is set to join in 2025.

Cole believes the club’s recruitment policy for goalkeepers has been mismanaged. “If your system works well, you shouldn’t make as many mistakes that have been made with goalkeepers,” he added.
