Kepa, who has played over 100 career league games, has solid experience at
the highest level having made more than 50 appearances in La Liga, his
quality earning him a call-up to the Spain squad for this summer's World
Cup in Russia.
凱帕有超過100場聯賽出場經驗，在頂級聯賽擁有穩定的發揮，在西甲出場超過50次，
表現優異的他獲得西班牙國家隊的徵召，參加了今年夏天在俄羅斯舉辦的世界盃。
Upon completing his move to Chelsea, he said: 'It's a very important
decision for me, for my career, and also for my personal life. So many
things attracted me to the club, all the titles the club has won, the
other players, the city, the English Premier League. It's an accumulation
of things, and I am very glad Chelsea has decided to trust me and to take
me in as well.'
談到完成轉會切爾西的感受，他說：“這對我、我的職業生涯和個人生活來說是個非
常重要的決定。切爾西是一個方方面面都很吸引我的俱樂部 － 俱樂部這些年奪得了
很多冠軍、這裡有世界級的球員、倫敦這個城市、當然還有英超聯賽。這裡彙集了許
多的元素，我很高興切爾西決定信任我，把我帶到這個俱樂部來。”

Director Marina Granovskaia added: 'Kepa is a talent we have admired for a
long time and we are extremely excited about his arrival. He has already
demonstrated fantastic quality and consistency and will be a big part of
any success Chelsea have in the coming years. His long-term contract
reflects the belief we have in him and we look ahead to the coming seasons
with an enormous sense of optimism.'
董事瑪麗娜˙格拉諾夫斯卡婭表示：“我們對凱帕的才華仰慕已久，我們非常高興他
來到這裡。他此前已經用精彩而穩定的表現證明了自己，他也將是未來切爾西宏大計
畫的重要一員。凱帕的長期合約體現了我們對他的信心，我們對未來非常樂觀，期待
在未來幾個賽季見證凱帕的精彩發揮。”
Quick and agile, Kepa possesses fantastic reflexes and has developed his
all-round game since establishing himself as Athletic Bilbao's
first-choice keeper two years ago. A great shot-stopper, he is confident
with the ball at his feet and capable of playing out from the back, even
under pressure.
凱帕快且靈活，擁有出色的反應能力。自從兩年前成為畢爾包競技的主力門將以來，
他不斷打磨自己的綜合能力。作為一個出色的門將，他處理腳下球很有信心，即使在
壓力下也能夠很好地從後場發起進攻。
Born in Ondarroa, a Basque seaside town, Kepa joined the Athletic academy
at the age of nine and after gaining experience at their fourth-tier
feeder club Basconia, he appeared regularly for Bilbao's B-team, earning
international recognition at youth level due to the quality of his
displays.
出生於巴斯克區沿海小城 Ondarroa 的凱帕9歲加盟畢爾包競技青訓，在俱樂部第四
級聯賽的衛星俱樂部 Basconia 積累經驗後，凱帕開始坐穩畢爾包競技二線隊的主力
門將，因為表現出色，在少年級別的國際賽事中代表國家隊多次出場。
Kepa was loaned to SD Ponferradina, a Spanish second division side, in
January 2015 and having made his debut against Racing Santander, he
started on a regular basis, keeping seven clean sheets in the process as
the team missed out on the play-offs by just one point. He established
himself in another second tier loan move with Real Valladolid the next
season, before returning to Bilbao for the 2016/17 campaign.
2015年1月凱帕租借加盟西班牙乙級聯賽 SD Ponferradina 俱樂部，並在對陣桑坦德
競技的比賽中上演首秀，此後坐穩主力位置，在接下來的比賽中幫助球隊七次零封對
手，最終球隊以一分之差無緣升級附加賽。接下來的賽季他在另一個乙級聯賽球隊皇
家瓦拉多利德足球俱樂部再次證明了自己，在2016/17賽季回到畢爾包競技。

Although not initially viewed as number one, he made his first appearance
in an away game at Deportivo La Coruna, keeping a clean sheet in a 1-0
win. He went on to make over 20 appearances throughout a season which
ended with him representing Spain at the European Under-21 Championship.
雖然起初他並不是球隊的主力，他在客場對陣拉科魯尼亞的比賽中首次亮相，該場比
賽零封對手，幫助俱樂部1-0取勝。2016/17賽季他出場超過20次，並代表西班牙隊參
加了歐洲U-21足球錦標賽。
Last season, Kepa's consistently impressive displays earned him regular
plaudits inside and outside the club. He saved two of the three penalties
he faced, as well as making the third-highest number of saves in the
Spanish top flight and successfully executing more long-range passes –
368 – than any other goalkeeper in La Liga.
上個賽季凱帕發揮穩定出色，俱樂部內外的讚譽之詞紛至沓來。上賽季他撲出了三個
點球中的兩個。他是西班牙頂級聯賽中撲救次數第三高的守門員，368腳長傳成功次
數傲視西甲同行。
His impressive form at club level led to a debut for the senior Spain
side, which came in a 5-0 win over Costa Rica last November. He was duly
named in the 23-man squad for the World Cup in Russia this summer.
在俱樂部的出色發揮為他贏得了國家隊首秀的機會，去年11月5-0大勝哥斯達黎加的
比賽中首次披上國家隊戰袍。隨後他入選了今年夏天俄羅斯世界盃的23人大名單。
He becomes the sixth Spaniard in the Blues squad, joining Cesar
Azpilicueta, Marcos Alonso, Cesc Fabregas, Pedro and Alvaro Morata.
凱帕成為了藍軍現役陣中第六個西班牙人，藍軍陣中的西班牙人還有阿斯皮利奎塔、
阿隆索、法布雷加斯、佩德羅和莫拉塔。
Kepa, who is eligible to play in Saturday's Premier League opener against
Huddersfield, will train with his new team-mates for the first time
tomorrow.
凱帕可以在週六對哈德斯菲爾德的英超揭幕戰亮相，明天他將第一次與一線隊合練。
Welcome to Chelsea, Kepa!
凱帕，歡迎加入切爾西大家庭！
