Newcastle United are all set to battle it out with Fulham and Manchester United for the services of Chelsea outcast Trevoh Chalobah.
According to a report from GIVEMESPORT, Newcastle United have entered the race for the services of Trevoh Chalobah. Chelsea are looking to cash in on their academy graduate for £30 million, and the Magpies are ready to battle it out with Manchester United and Fulham for his signature.
Chalobah came up the ranks at Chelsea at some pace. He was promoted to their first team in the summer of 2021. While the English centre-back broke onto the scene in some fashion, he could not continue the impressive start to his senior career for long.
Chelsea want to cash in on Trevoh Chalobah
The 25-year-old has struggled to stay fit, and it has seen him go down the pecking order at Stamford Bridge. While he did bounce back in the second half of last season, the Blues do not consider him to be a part of their plans moving ahead.
The homegrown utility man was left out of their pre-season squad by Enzo Maresca, which is a clear indication that they are ready to cash in on their academy graduate. While Trevoh Chalobah still has four years left on his £50,000-a-week deal, the Blues are willing to let him leave for £30 million.
Chelsea are keen on offloading him and have informed him about their decision. But, the player will only leave if he thinks it is the right opportunity for him. He seeks European football and would prefer to join a club that is competing in Europe next season or has a strong base to be there in the near future. With four years left on his deal, Chalobah will have a big say on his future.
Manchester United and Fulham keen on Chalobah
Multiple top clubs in England are interested in Trevoh Chalobah. Manchester United and Fulham are two clubs who have been linked with him for some time. The Red Devils have Europa League football, and they are looking at Chalobah as someone who will add depth to the heart of their defence and help cover at right-back amidst uncertainty over Aaron Wan-Bissaka’s future.
Fulham might not have European football to offer him. But joining them will help him continue in London something, which could surely help their cause. He could come in to replace Tosin Adarabioyo, who has recently joined Chelsea as a free agent.
Newcastle United have entered the race for Chalobah
While Manchester United and Fulham have been interested in Trevoh Chalobah for some time, Newcastle United have just entered the race, and they are looking to lure him to their club. The Magpies are not competing in Europe this season, but their long-term project could help convince Chalobah.
Newcastle United are discussing making a move for him as they need a new right-sided defender, with Jamaal Lascelles set to remain on the sidelines until the end of the year with an anterior cruciate ligament injury. While Fulham, Manchester United, and Newcastle United are keen, none of the suitors have formally enquired about the £30 million-rated utility man yet.
