KEPA ARRIZABALAGA wants to stay at Chelsea and convince the fans he is their true Blue No1.
The Spanish keeper, 28, thinks incoming boss Mauricio Pochettino can help him win over the supporters.

Kepa is big pals with Toni Jimenez who will be joining Pochettino as goalkeeper coach.
The pair have started planning and believe Kepa can improve next season.
Chelsea are selling fellow keeper Edouard Mendy, 31, to Saudi side Al-Alhi and have been linked with a move for Inter Milan’s Andre Onana.
But Kepa must prove himself to a fifth manager since a £71.6million move to London five years ago.
Jimenez is part of Pochettino’s staff who will officially begin work on July 3.
Kepa returns a few days later, having been recalled to Spain’s squad — even if he did not play in their Nations League triumph.
Kepa has two years left on his contract and wants to stay, even though Chelsea’s owners are offloading a raft of players.
During his time off, though, Kepa is relaxing in the sunshine with his fiancee Andrea Martinez.
