Chelsea could end up doing business with one of their London rivals before the transfer window closes next week.
Chelsea have plenty of players to offload, including Trevoh Chalobah, Raheem Sterling and Ben Chilwell.
Manchester United have an opportunity to sign Chilwell, while Graeme Souness thinks Sterling could move abroad.
As for Chalobah, a switch to one of Chelsea’s London rivals does not seem impossible after his exile.
Trevoh Chalobah could consider move to Crystal Palace
Chalobah’s desire is to play for a club who are currently competing in Europe by the looks of things.
However, according to GiveMeSport, while the central defender does want European football, he may listen to what Crystal Palace have to say.
The same outlet claims that Chalobah has a desire to remain in London and could engage with Palace as a result. Their report also says that the 25-year-old could cost up to £30m.
Despite his banishment, Chalobah still appears to be taking an interest in Chelsea. Chalobah was impressed with Romeo Lavia in the Blues’ 2-0 defeat to Manchester City last weekend.
Trevoh Chalobah and Ben Chilwell could cost around the same price
For any Premier League club looking to sign a centre-back or left-back right now, Chelsea could be a great place to turn to.
Chalobah and Chilwell are both experienced players in this division and will not cost too much money either. It has been claimed that Chelsea only want £25m for Chilwell, so someone could end up getting the 27-year-old for half of the price the Blues paid for him.
Chelsea signed Chilwell from Leicester City for £50m back in the summer of 2020. If £25m is all he is going to cost, it would be a surprise if no one came in for the England international.
And the same applies to Chalobah, whom Chelsea value at around the same figure. Both players need suitors after being booted out of the first-team squad.
