Inter Milan and Como also remain interested, although neither Italian club has yet matched Chelsea\u2019s valuation.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Chalobah spent the first half of the 2024\/25 season on loan at Selhurst Park. Chelsea recalled him in January after injuries reduced their defensive options.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The 27-year-old went on to rebuild his position at Stamford Bridge and made 47 appearances across all competitions last season. His performances also earned him a place with England at the World Cup.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-x wp-block-embed-x\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">\ud83d\udea8\ud83c\udff4\udb40\udc67\udb40\udc62\udb40\udc65\udb40\udc6e\udb40\udc67\udb40\udc7f Crystal Palace have enquired about Trevoh Chalobah during talks with Chelsea this summer.<\/p>\n<p>Chelsea are seeking around \u00a335M for Chalobah, while Inter and Como also remain interested.@siphillipssport <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/nPn5SyHmqd\">pic.twitter.com\/nPn5SyHmqd<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Palace Report (@PalaceReport) July 15, 2026<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Chelsea hold firm on Chalobah valuation<\/h2>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Chelsea have already rejected approaches from Como, who remain keen to reunite Chalobah with former Blues midfielder Cesc Fabregas.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As Read Chelsea previously reported, Como submitted an offer worth around \u00a323.3m. Chelsea were seeking closer to \u00a330m plus achievable add-ons at that stage.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The latest \u00a335m figure suggests the Blues continue to place a significant value on Chalobah despite remaining open to a sale.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Xabi Alonso already has several central defenders available, but Chelsea are also pursuing Crystal Palace\u2019s Maxence Lacroix. Talks over the Frenchman may have provided Palace with the opportunity to ask about Chalobah.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A return to Selhurst Park would give Chalobah regular Premier League football in familiar surroundings. However, Palace would need to move closer to Chelsea\u2019s valuation before negotiations could advance.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Chelsea remain in control while Chalobah is under contract and attracting interest from several clubs. A strong World Cup campaign could also strengthen their position before the defender returns for pre-season.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Chelsea have reportedly received an enquiry from Crystal Palace over a permanent move for Trevoh&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":17717,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pagelayer_contact_templates":[],"_pagelayer_content":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-17716","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-chelsea"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/playball.com.ng\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17716","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/playball.com.ng\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/playball.com.ng\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/playball.com.ng\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/playball.com.ng\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=17716"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/playball.com.ng\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17716\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/playball.com.ng\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/17717"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/playball.com.ng\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=17716"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/playball.com.ng\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=17716"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/playball.com.ng\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=17716"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
