Arsenal, Man City & Liverpool set for goalkeeper battle as Premier League giants track Villarreal star Filip Jorgensen

Arsenal face a pivotal decision regarding the future of Aaron Ramsdale, who has been displaced by David Raya as the No.1 choice, under Mikel Arteta's management. Meanwhile, Liverpool's backup goalkeeper, Caoimhin Kelleher, has emerged as Celtic's primary target to succeed the retiring Joe Hart, which has forced the Reds to dip into the market. Meanwhile, Manchester City, with uncertainty surrounding the future of Stefan Ortega, who recently featured in the high-profile Champions League quarter-final clash against Real Madrid, is also in the hunt for a goalkeeper. And according to HITC, the Premier League heavyweights are poised for a heated battle over the signature of Jorgensen.

At just 21 years old, Jorgensen has swiftly established himself as one of Europe's most promising young goalkeepers. Despite making his first-team debut for Villarreal in January 2023, he has firmly cemented his place as the club's first-choice goalkeeper.

Villarreal's management, led by Marcelino Garcia Toral, recognizes Jorgensen's immense potential and is keen to reward his rapid development. Discussions of a contract extension have surfaced to fend away potential suitors despite Jorgensen's current deal running until 2027.

Throughout the campaign, the 6ft 3ins goalkeeper has showcased his talent, amassing an impressive tally of 118 saves, surpassing all other La Liga goalkeepers. Additionally, Jorgensen boasts a remarkable save percentage of 71.6%, outperforming counterparts Raya and Ramsdale this season.

Beyond the Premier League giants, Jorgensen has attracted interest from Newcastle United and Wolves as well. Eddie Howe's side is contemplating their goalkeeping options, especially with the potential departure of Martin Dubravka and the impending free transfer of Loris Karius in the upcoming summer transfer window.

As the race for Jorgensen's signature intensifies, it remains to be seen which club will secure the services of this highly coveted young goalkeeper, whose talent continues to capture the attention of football aficionados across Europe.
