In a move that will delight Chelsea fans, Marcus Bettinelli has signed a new contract with the club, committing his future to the Premier League side until 2026.
The goalkeeper joined Chelsea from Fulham in 2021 and has since served mainly as a backup option to Kepa Arrizabalaga and Edouard Mendy.
Despite only making one competitive appearance for the Blues, in a 5-1 FA Cup victory over Chesterfield, Bettinelli is thrilled to extend his stay with the club.
He expressed his excitement about being part of Chelsea’s transition and development, and he sees his extended stay with the club as a privilege.
Chelsea fans will hope that the club’s management has seen something special in Bettinelli, as his extended contract indicates that he may have a more significant role to play in the future.
With 11 games remaining in the Premier League, the Blues will hope to improve their position and push for a top-four finish.
The new deal will come as a boost to Chelsea’s morale as they look to build on their recent success under Thomas Tuchel.
Chelsea won the Champions League last season, beating Manchester City in the final, and will hope to build on that success in the coming years.
The Blues will return to Premier League action after the international break with a game against Aston Villa at Stamford Bridge.
With 11 points separating them from fourth-placed Tottenham, Chelsea will need to win all their remaining games and hope for a few slip-ups from their rivals if they are to qualify for the Champions League.
But with Bettinelli’s commitment to the club, they have one more reason to believe in their chances of success.
