Chelsea set Chalobah asking price as first Como offer reaches €27m More details are emerging on Como’s offer for Trevoh Chalobah, reported to be worth €25m plus €2m add-ons, but Chelsea are demanding €35m for the defender, who is also targeted by Inter. There had already been numerous suggestions over the last few days that Como had set their sights on Chalobah to reinforce their squad after securing Champions League qualification. It was also clear that this was going to be a difficult operation due to the costs involved in the transfer fee, as well as competition from Inter.

However, this is a far cry from the Chelsea asking price, which is set at €30m plus another €5m in performance-related bonuses.

A product of the Chelsea youth academy, Chalobah turns 27 next month and made 47 competitive appearances for his club this season, also scoring three goals from defence.
