The reliable Fabrizio Romano has claimed on X that Atletico Madrid have discussed Trevoh Chalobah‘s name as they look to bring in a new defender before the transfer window closes.
However, according to the Italian journalist, they considered him too expensive in the end.
Football.london’s Bobby Vincent recently shared on The Si Phillips Talks Chelsea Podcast that the Blues want around £35m for the centre-back.
Chalobah is yet to play a game for Chelsea this season and that theme could continue even when he is back. The former England U21 international will have to oust Thiago Silva or Axel Disasi out of the team if he wants a starting spot, while Benoit Badiashile is another centre-half rival as well.
