Trevoh Chalobah has continuously had to prove himself worthy of a spot in Chelsea's first-team squad since his surprise breakthrough in the summer of 2021.
Running alongside that positive emergence though, he has been linked with a move away. In 2021 it was a potential loan to Valencia, in 2022 a potential loan to RB Leipzig. Now, it is Champions League finalists Inter Milan that have come calling for his signature.
Chalobah might have been incapable of arresting a dramatic underperformance by Chelsea in the 2022/23 season, but there was still enough evidence to prove his worthiness over others. This link and potential exit would come to represent a widespread issue within a club that at times seems to undervalue their homegrown talents, whilst those across Europe reap the rewards of their long-term development.
