Trevoh Chalobah is on Fulham’s shortlist to replace Tosin Adarabioyo this summer but they will face competition from other clubs according to reports.

Chalobah has been brilliant for Chelsea since returning to the side in February after a long injury layoff which caused him to miss the first half of the season.

He’s put in a series of impressive performances at both centre back and right back, with the Blues not losing a Premier League game he started this season.

Chalobah on Fulham’s shortlist

Despite his form, and obvious love of the club his future has been clouded with uncertainty, with Chelsea believed to be open to offers for the 24-year-old.

Chalobah came through the ranks at Cobham and has established himself as a key member of the squad, but due to his homegrown status he would represent “pure profit” on the books, with the club believed to need to raise money in order to comply with Financial Fair Play.

The Cobham graduate is under contract until 2028, and playing some of the best football of his career, with Mauricio Pochettino believed to view him as one of Chelsea’s best defenders.

Chalobah’s future at Chelsea is uncertain.

However, it’s possible Chalobah could have played his final game for the club against Bournemouth last weekend, which would be a huge mistake.

The Telegraph reported on Monday that Chelsea still value Chalobah at around £25m like they did last summer, with the defender actually turning down a move to Nottingham Forest.

It’s an insulting valuation for a player who is in top form and has so much to offer, and will do very little to help the relationship between the fans and the ownership.

Until Chalobah’s future is resolved rumours will continue to circulate and journalist Sacha Tavolieri has reported Chalobah is on Fulham’s shortlist as they seek replacements for the departing Adarabioyo.

He took to X and said:

“EXCL. #Chelsea’s Trevoh Chalobah concretely on #FulhamFC’s short-list to substitute Tosin Adarabioyo this summer. Although there is competition in this case, Fulham’s going to push during the window to make it happen, wait&see.”

If Chalobah does end up leaving then Chelsea need to make sure they get market value for a player who is worth far more than £25m.
