Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly showing a keen interest in Chelsea defender Trevor Chalobah and are prepared to make a move for him in the upcoming January transfer window, provided he remains injury-free.
Italian outlet Calciomercato.it has revealed that Tottenham are ready to compete with Roma, who have also expressed an interest in signing the Englishman. Roma is looking to bolster their squad under the guidance of manager Jose Mourinho and sees Chalobah as a potential target.
Roma’s strategy resembles the successful acquisition of Chris Smalling from a Premier League club in 2019. The club aims to sign Chalobah, who seems to be on the fringes at Chelsea and is weighing his options for the future.
Chalobah has not featured in any games this season due to injuries, and Roma sees this as an opportunity to secure his signature at a lower price in January.
However, the main obstacle in Roma’s pursuit of Chalobah is the competition from Tottenham. The Premier League club is strongly interested in the player and would be willing to make a move for him if he remains injury-free.
Apart from Tottenham, other clubs such as West Ham, Bayern Munich, and Juventus are also believed to be monitoring Chalobah and potentially considering making offers.
Given the circumstances, some may question the reliability of Chalobah’s potential transfers and the ease with which they may materialize.
