Sensational move on the transfer market! Como one step away from signing Chelsea defender for €30 million
Italian side Como are on the verge of pulling off one of the most high-profile transfers in their modern history.
Details: According to Fabrizio Romano, the club is in the final stages of negotiations with Chelsea over the transfer of centre-back Trevoh Chalobah.
The reported fee is set at €30 million. Both clubs remain confident the deal will be completed, as the player himself agreed on all personal terms with Como several days ago.
All that remains is the final green light from Chelsea, after which the transfer will become official. If there are no unexpected obstacles, Chalobah will soon become the newest addition to the Italian club.
For Como, this transfer could be one of the most prestigious in the club’s history. Bringing in a defender with Chelsea experience would be a major boost ahead of the new season and underlines the club’s ambition to establish themselves among Serie A’s elite.
Chalobah’s market value is estimated by Transfermarkt at €40 million, and his contract with Chelsea runs until 2028.
