Chalobah’s rise continues
There was a stage in the summer when Trevoh Chalobah’s future at Chelsea was uncertain. The academy graduate had – for reasons that were not entirely clear – lost the faith of Thomas Tuchel and interest from a number of sides across Europe have mounted.
Several clubs in Serie A were prepared to take the 23-year-old on loan. RB Leipzig were also interested in a deal with fitness concerns at centre-back. Yet a conversation with those in the new Chelsea ownership group convinced Chalobah to remain at Stamford Bridge.
