On October 10th, Sky Deutschland stated Trevoh Chalobah is likely to leave Chelsea in January and that he’s keen on moving to Bayern Munich. Three days later, the same outlet reported the defender’s name is being discussed ‘again and again’ at the Bavarian club.
Thomas Tuchel’s side are not alone as Borussia Dortmund have also identified the 24-year-old as a target for the winter market.
That’s according to Bild, who say BVB coach Edin Terzić and sporting director Sebastian Kehl have both set their sights on the Chelsea player.
Therefore, the Bundesliga side are ‘intensively looking’ for a player in the same position in the next window and are now keen to sign Chalobah.
It’s claimed the Chelsea man is a ‘real all-purpose weapon’ as he can be used as a centre-back, right-back and also as a defensive midfielder. His versatility will be a ‘big plus’, if BVB were to sign him.
Chalobah has a deal until 2028, with an option for another year, and Bild state the Blues are ‘said to be dreaming’ of a fee around €30m from the versatile player’s sale in January. Dortmund cannot afford it and are hoping to take him on loan with an option to buy.
