Reports from Germany have claimed that Trevoh Chalobah has now decided he wants to leave Chelsea during this transfer window.
According to Sky Sports Germany, the defender is sold on the idea of moving to Bayern Munich, where he will combine with former manager Thomas Tuchel.
Opportunities at this moment certainly look bleak for Chalobah heading into this season under the new manager.
While it has been an injury that has stopped him competing for minutes so far in the Premier League, some of the transfer activity surrounding the squad does highlight an uphill battle for the Englishman.
The Blues recently completed the signing of Axel Disasi, who has so far started every single game for new manager Mauricio Pochettino.
Chalobah wants to join Bayern
Given the fact that the Frenchman did not take part in any of the club’s pre-season friendlies, it does appear that he has the backing of the boss going into this campaign.
With Chalobah holding plenty of value as a product of the academy, there have been reports all summer that he could be surplus to requirements this season.
Now, it has been claimed that he has perhaps accepted this fact, and is seeing his future elsewhere for the first time,
If he does move, Bayern will be acquiring a great player. The Englishman was described as ‘fantastic’ by their current manager a couple of years ago.
If the Blues do let him go, it is likely to be on a permanent deal, with the money raised going down on the books as pure profit as far as Financial Fair Play is concerned.
