Como agree £31m deal to sign Chalobah from Chelsea
Italian club Como have agreed a £31m deal with Chelsea for the transfer of centre-back Trevoh Chalobah. The defender is set to leave Stamford Bridge after spending time in and out of the Chelsea squad. Como, newly promoted to Serie A and backed by wealthy Indonesian owners, have been ambitious in the transfer market. Chalobah is expected to bring Premier League experience to Como's defence as they look to establish themselves in Italy's top flight.

For Como, acquiring a Premier League-proven defender for £31m signals serious financial ambition and intent to compete in Serie A. For Chelsea, it continues their pattern of selling academy products and squad players to fund squad reshaping, while trimming defensive depth. Chalobah, at 25, brings versatility (can play CB and occasionally midfield) and English top-flight experience, making him a valuable addition for Como's survival bid.
