As reported by Football London, Chalobah is increasingly becoming uncertain about his future at Chelsea. His stay at the Stamford Bridge may not be for a long time. As reported by Chelsea’s official website, the Englishman had signed a contract extension back in November 2022. Therefore, his current deal runs up to 2028 with an option to extend it by one year to 2029.

Chalobah is going to enter into his second last year of his contract. But Chelsea have not hinted anything about his contract extension. The London club has not started discussing about his future with the defender. This failure to address the Premier League player’s contract has encouraged other clubs in Europe to make a move. Various clubs who will take part in Champions League next season have levelled up their interest. They have started to keep their tabs on him.

Cesc Fabregas’ Como will join the race for Chalobah along with European teams

Cesc Fabregas has managed Como to qualify for the Champions League next season. The Serie A side is performing brilliantly under the Spaniard’s coaching. They will look to strengthen their squad as they have secured Champions League football.

As reported by Yahoo Sports, Italian journalist Fabrizio Romano has informed that Como have submitted an initial formal bid. In a post on X, he has written that the financial figure of that offer has not been disclosed yet. Chelsea are interested to open talks with Chalobah’s suitors for a sale. Inter Milan have also viewed the 26-year-old as one of their centre back options.

Many European clubs will go through a tight competition to secure the centre back’s signing. They hold a genuine interest in the Chelsea defender. Fans are excited to know Chalobah’s next destination. The 26-year-old will be great addition for any European club.

New coach Xabi Alonso in search of a new defender

Xabi Alonso is the latest incoming at Stamford Bridge. Chelsea board has hired him as the new head coach. The Spaniard will join the London club from 1st July as reported by Chelsea’s official website. But he has already started to work behind the curtains.

As reported by Goal, Alonso has started to discuss his desired targets with the club’s sporting management. He wants to establish his own setup so that he can execute his ideas on the pitch. The foremost priority for the Chelsea boss is a defender who will be Levi Colwill’s centre back partner in the long run. Moreover, the Blues were also thinking about signing a defender. They were preparing themselves to get a centre back which is necessary for the 2026-27 season.

Trevoh Chalobah has shown his abilities on the pitch for several seasons at Stamford Bridge. But Alonso wants a new profile who will fit into the defense line of his system. This change in setup has positioned Chalobah a bit lower in the pecking order. So, an exit in the summer transfer window is possible.
