After Sunday's debacle, Kepa Arrizabalaga has not only lost his place in the supporters' hearts but may have also lost his place in the starting XI. But the London club would be smart enough not to let the Spanish keeper's services go to waste, as they have spent a reported €75 million on him, and this was what Maurizio Sarri had to say.

Sarri, on having been asked, whether Kepa would start against Spurs on Wednesday night, the Italian replied, "Maybe yes, Maybe not. It's 50-50."

He was also asked about Kepa's fitness to which he replied that the Spanish keeper was fit, as he underwent a recovery training on Monday, but he could only take a decision on him starting against Spurs on the matchday.

The Italian manager also said that Kepa has apologized to the technical staff, the players and the club, for his misconduct.
