Exclusive : Talented Chelsea Goalkeeper Heading To Porto This Week

Published: February 03, 2020

Allnigeriasoccer.com can exclusively report that promising goalkeeper Josh Clarke is preparing to bid farewell to English Premier League side Chelsea.

The Sweden youth international has not been offered a scholarship by Chelsea for the 2020-2021 season, so he has been permitted to look for a new club.

Clarke has received an invitation to train with Primeira Liga outfit Porto with a view to a summer move and will travel to Portugal this week, accompanied by his agent.

The 2004-born player is also on the radar of Turkish giants Besiktas as well as unnamed Premier League and Championship clubs.

Though Clarke's qualities are not in doubt, he is currently behind Nigerian duo Prince Adegoke and Kelechi Chibueze in the pecking order of goalkeepers at Chelsea U16s.

While Adegoke and Chibueze have not debuted for Chelsea in the U18 Premier League, the Scandinavian glovesman played his first competitive game for the U18s in a 2-2 draw vs Arsenal in May 2018.
