Chelsea’s sale of Chalobah stalls as Inter puts deal on hold

Chelsea have reopened talks with Como over defender Trevoh Chalobah as Inter pause their pursuit, after the Serie A club’s failed attempt to sign Anan Khalaili left a vacancy on the wing‑back flank. Chelsea’s Blues are reportedly desperate to offload the England‑capped player, while Inter remain on standby, weighing a potential discount.

Inter have been pursuing a move for Trevoh Chalobah, but the transfer remains on stand‑by. The Serie A side’s interest reflects a need to reinforce the wing‑back position.

Get Italian Football News reported that Como and Inter have spoken to each other rather cordially about the defender. The dialogue suggests both clubs are open to negotiations.

Como, the lakeside club, clarified that it will not create an auction for Chalobah, indicating a silent withdrawal from a bidding war.

Alfredo Pedulla has reported that Chelsea could be desperate to sell the player.

Inter, troubled by the failure to sign Anan Khalaili, are focusing on the wing‑back role and have put the idea of signing Chalobah on hold.

The Blues have therefore re‑opened contact with Como to ascertain whether the club wishes to proceed with a sale.

Cesc Fabregas’ side remain in the background, preparing instead to target ex‑Tottenham midfielder Davinson Sanchez.

Both Inter and Como are likely to seek a discount, knowing the finances in Serie A and how they operate.

Chelsea may look to English buyers, given Chalobah’s previous loan spells in the Premier League.
