Napoli lining up move for Chelsea defender

Chalobah to Napoli?

Napoli lining up move for Chelsea defender

15 January 2024 - 21:02

Napoli are reportedly lining up a January move for Chelsea defender Trevoh Chalobah.

  • Chelsea eyeing surprise move for former Arsenal striker
  • Man Utd favourites to sign £39m Brazilian midfielder


  • The English centre-back has been on the sidelines since the start of the season with a thigh injury, but he is close to returning to first-team action.

    As a result, the speculation over his future has resumed and it is claimed that Napoli are now interested in pursuing his signature.

    The Serie A outfit have had a dismal defence of their league title and they are determined to shore up their backline this winter.

    Chalobah is seen as a quality candidate to fit into the heart of their backline as he is a good passer and has good concentration.

    Chelsea were looking for at least £30m to part ways with him last summer, but the price is likely to reduce amid his injuries.

    They could be tempted to accept a loan deal with an option to buy for around £25m at the end of the ongoing campaign.
