Chelsea could be offered a cheap route to securing one of their main transfer targets in 2023 as Graham Potter makes plans for personnel changes at Stamford Bridge. The manager is currently working with an assortment of players at a mid-season camp in Abu Dhabi but doesn't have a natural senior play that is fit to play right-back.
Reece James is currently injured and isn't yet fit to play in matches despite returning to training and Spain international Cesar Azpilicueta was only knocked out of the World Cup in Qatar on Tuesday and won't be back until later this week. Ruben Loftus-Cheek has been used at wing-back this season but he is also struggling with injury and is undergoing treatment, football.london has learnt.
This leaves Trevoh Chalobah, but he has been used sparingly as a wing-back and full-back during his career and will be needed in central defence.
