Chelsea willing to sanction Trevoh Chalobah transfer this summer amid Inter Milan interest | OneFootball

Standard Sport understands Chalobah is behind fellow centre-backs Thiago Silva, Wesley Fofana, Benoit Badiashile and Levi Colwill in the pecking order at Stamford Bridge.

New manager Mauricio Pochettino only wants four centre-backs in the first-team squad next season.

The club have made the decision that they will listen to offers and potentially sanction the 24-year-old’s exit if the price is right.

Standard Sport last month that Inter Milan want to sign Chalobah, and value the defender at around £25million. Other clubs are also interested in making an offer.

While Chalobah is willing to fight for his place at Chelsea and was in high spirits training under Pochettino this week, he wants regular first-team football as he targets an England debut ahead of the Euro 2024 tournament next summer.

Both the player and club are in full agreement that if a transfer proposal comes in which is attractive to both parties, then he can leave.

Chalobah featured in all nine of caretaker manager Frank Lampard’s matches in charge at the end of last season, but only played sporadically under Thomas Tuchel and Graham Potter.
