Chelsea defender Ben Chilwell has been linked with a move away from the West London club this summer, with Brentford interested.
Ben Chilwell has struggled for regular game time at Chelsea owing to persistent injury problems and the presence of Marc Cucurella. The 27-year-old will look to get his career back on track with regular football, and Brentford are prepared to provide him with that opportunity, as per HITC.
The report states that Chelsea are in contact with their fellow London club for the 27-year-old’s departure. It will be interesting to see if Brentford are willing to loan him until the end of the season. The two clubs are currently underway discussing a loan move.
Chilwell has shown his quality in English football, and there is no doubt that he can be a superb acquisition. Brentford need to add more quality and depth to their side, and the 27-year-old can be a key player for them. Chilwell will be disappointed with the situation at Chelsea, and he will be desperate to bounce back strongly.
Ben Chilwell needs to get back to his best
Chilwell will look to impress during his loan spell away from the club and move on permanently in the near future. If he manages to do well with Brentford, he will have plenty of opportunities to join another big club next summer.
Chelsea will certainly hope that the English defender does well during his loan so that they can sell him for a substantial amount of money in the summer. The former Leicester City wide man has the tools to develop into one of the best full-backs in the Premier League. He is at the peak of his career right now, and it will be interesting to see if he can regain his form and confidence.
The 27-year-old could transform Brentford if he manages to hit top form this season. It seems that Cucurella will once again be the first-choice left-back at Chelsea this season. The Spaniard was criticised heavily for his inconsistent performances after arriving from Brighton, and it will be interesting to see if he can improve this time around.
