Trevoh Chalobah has insisted he loves Chelsea and will “always fight no matter what” as speculation about his future continues.
Chalobah made his first start since pre season back in July last year in last night’s 3-2 win over Leeds and has missed 32 games this season through injury.
The 24 year old looked comfortable alongside Axel Disasi in the heart of the Blues defence as he completed his first 90 minutes since returning from a long term injury.
During that spell on the sidelines Chalobah has had to deal with constant speculation around his future with a move to Bayern Munich falling through last summer.
The academy graduate has said that during his time on the sidelines he has just kept his head down and stayed focused despite all the noise around him.
In quotes picked up by London World he said: “I kept my head down and always kept working. With all the noise going on around me, I always just stay focused and I can always do what is in front of me.”
“And me being at this club and how much I love the club, I will fight no matter what. If I play or I don’t play, I will give it my all and that is all I can do.”
With Chelsea’s squad stretched due to injuries Chalobah will be hoping that he is handed more opportunities in the remainder of the season by Mauricio Pochettino.
Chalobah penned a new six year contract back in November 2022 but is expected to be sold this summer as the Blues look to raise money so they don’t fall foul of the Premier League’s profit and sustainability rules.
