Manchester United have expressed interest in Chelsea’s Trevoh Chalobah, with the 25-year-old being informed that he’s free to leave Stamford Bridge. According to Ben Jacobs on Give Me Sport, Manchester United are among several clubs to have made inquiries about the £30 million-rated player.
Chalobah, who signed a long-term deal with Chelsea last summer, is disappointed after being excluded from the pre-season squad by new manager Enzo Maresca. Chelsea’s acquisition of Tosin Adarabioyo and Wesley Fofana has made Chalobah surplus to requirements, and the Blues are open to his sale for a fee around £30 million.
Chalobah is keen on a move that includes European football or a club with consistent prospects of achieving it. His versatility makes him an attractive option for Manchester United, who are seeking a replacement for Raphael Varane and possibly Victor Lindelof. Erik ten Hag views Chalobah’s ability to play in both defense and midfield as a valuable asset.
With no concrete offers yet, Chelsea’s valuation of at least £25 million remains firm. For Manchester United, Chalobah represents a financially viable and strategic signing to bolster their squad depth and tactical flexibility.
