Chalobah happy to wait amid uncertain future
- Published
Trevoh Chalobah is going to be patient when deciding his future, despite being left out of Chelsea's squad for the pre-season tour of the United States.
The defender, 24, is deemed surplus to requirements at Stamford Bridge and is available for an estimated 拢25m.
But he also has the security of four years left on his contract and is waiting for either a club competing for European qualification in the Premier League or with Champions League football overseas.
Chalobah rejected a move to Nottingham Forest last summer after Chelsea had accepted a 拢25m bid.
Alfie Gilchrist was also left out of the squad as he has been made available for loan, with Sheffield United, Sheffield Wednesday and Preston believed to be interested.
Goalkeeper Djordje Petrovic and midfielder Omari Kellyman did not travel because of injury, while Cole Palmer, Conor Gallagher, Marc Cucurella, Moises Caicedo and Enzo Fernandez remain on holiday after reaching the latter stages of Euro 2024 and Copa America.
New boss Enzo Maresca is likely to be asked about the alleged racism posted by Fernandez on social media in his first news conference, which will take place overnight UK time.
