Trevoh Chalobah Roma move could be Chelsea masterstroke in safe hands of Jose Mourinho

After a breakout season at Chelsea last term, the start of the 2022/23 campaign hasn't gone as Trevoh Chalobah would have planned. Last season, the defender played 20 of Chelsea's 38 Premier League games as he established himself as an important member of the first-team squad after a series of loan spells.

Chalobah scored on his Premier League debut against Crystal Palace on the opening game of last season and he was used throughout the season by Thomas Tuchel. The 23-year-old started in both the Carabao Cup and FA Cup final against Liverpool.

However, the arrivals of Wesley Fofana and Kalidou Koulibaly have seen Chalobah's first-team chances decrease. He has played just one game in all competitions so far this season, which was in the 2-1 win over Leicester City last month. It remains to be seen what role Chalobah is set to play in Graham Potter's plans - but it's been a frustrating start to the season.
