Chelsea transfer news: Nathaniel Chalobah set to join Blues exodus in bargain £5m deal with Watford and Swansea interested
England Under-21 star is ready to make the big break and find a new Premier League home to play every week
CHELSEA starlet Nathaniel Chalobah will join the Stamford Bridge exodus – with a bargain £5million price tag on his head.
Versatile Chalobah is wanted by Watford and Swansea, with rivals also alerted to his fixed fee with a year left on his contract.
The England Under-21 ‘veteran’ is ready to make the big break and find a new Premier League home to play at the top level every week.
Watford have a long term interest and hope to close a quick deal but the Swans are now armed with cash from the sale of Jack Cork.
Chalobah could also be on other hitlists as news of his bargain valuation goes round.
The 22-year-old made 15 Chelsea appearances last term, and also helped Aidy Boothroyd’s Young Lions reach the semi-finals in the U21 Championship this summer.
The Blues are chasing Monaco midfielder Tiemoue Bakayoko, who would push Chalobah further down the pecking order.
Fellow youngsters Nathan Ake and Bertrand Traore have also left Stamford Bridge this summer.
