Kjell Scherpen - Soccer News, Rumors, & Updates

Two saves but conceded twice Scherpen made two saves and allowed two goals in Saturday's 3-2 win versus Crystal Palace.

Impact Scherpen made two saves, but was unable to prevent two goals from Crystal Palace, both of which came from outstanding finishes. The keeper is still waiting on his first clean sheet of the season and has conceded nine goals in the last three games.

Five saves in loss Scherpen made five saves and allowed two goals in Friday's 2-0 defeat to Liverpool.

Impact Scherpen made five saves during Friday's clash, but it didn't matter after he allowed two goals in the opening 10 minutes. The goalkeeper was solid after Alexander Isak beat him twice in quick succession. Against a team like Liverpool, those two early goals were insurmountable and put the match in a tough spot. Scherpen will have a better chance in some more manageable matches.

Made six saves in 5-2 defeat Scherpen registered six saves and allowed five goals in Sunday's 5-2 defeat against Manchester United.

Impact Scherpen got his first experience of a big Premier League away day as Ipswich travelled to Old Trafford. The keeper made two of his six saves as Ipswich went into the break at 1-1. After a busier start to the second half the keeper was unfortunate to concede the next two goals as a deflection off Jacobs Greaves and then a penalty put the game seemingly out of reach.

Two saves in win Scherpen had two saves and allowed one goal in Saturday's 2-1 victory over Sunderland.

Impact Scherpen stopped two of the three shots he faced during Saturday's match, and that was enough to earn the win. The goalkeeper didn't have too much to do as the team in front of him was excellent, but that proved to be enough for Ipswich to take a hugely important three points. Scherpen is going to be heavily tested every time he's in net this season.

Loan comes to end Scherpen has returned to Brighton from his loan with Sturm Graz.

Impact Scherpen is done with his time in Austria after a full season spent with Sturm Graz and is now back with Brighton. He would see a starting role with the club and even capture UCL appearances, appearing in 40 games while recording 55 goals allowed and eight clean sheets. He could work into a role as a backup with Brighton but is unlikely to take over a starting role, with the 25-year-old possibly seeing another loan or a transfer out.
