Fabrizio Romano has reported on Twitter that Thomas Tuchel’s Chelsea could let Trevoh Chalobah leave on loan, amid reported interest from Jesse Marsch’s Leeds United and Antonio Conte’s Tottenham Hotspur in the summer transfer window.

The well-known and well-respected journalist has claimed that Chelsea have made a new bid for Wesley Fofana, and that if the former Premier League and UEFA Champions League champions are able to sign the Leicester City centre-back, then they will allow Chalobah to leave on loan.

Leeds and Tottenham linked with Trevoh Chalobah of Chelsea

Earlier this week, 90min reported that Leeds and Everton are among the clubs keen on signing the 23-year-old English central defender on loan.

The London Evening Standard reported last weekend that Tottenham are showing interested in Chalobah, who can also operate as a defensive midfielder.

Encouraging

In our view, Fabrizio Romano’s update on Trevoh Chalobah is encouraging for Leeds United and Tottenham Hotspur.

Now, of course, as you can see, Romano has reported that RB Leipzig, Inter Milan and AC Milan want to sign the defender.

So, Chelsea could decide to send the youngster out on loan to a club outside the Premier League.

However, that Chelsea will allow Chalobah, 23, to leave on loan if they are able to sign Fofana suggests that Leeds and Tottenham at least do have a chance of signing him.
