Chelsea are in talks with defender Trevoh Chalobah about extending his contract after impressing Thomas Tuchel. The 22-year-old had been linked with a loan move this season, but he is now expected to stay at Chelsea.
Chalobah capped off a successful pre-season with a fantastic goal in Saturday’s 3-0 win over Crystal Palace.
Emerson Palmieri, a defender with the Blues, has joined Lyon on loan for the rest of the season. Lyon will pay around £420,000 for the 27-year-old Brazilian-born Italy international, who joined Chelsea from Roma in January 2018. He can play at left-back or wing-back.
Emerson, who was a member of Italy’s Euro 2020 winning squad, made his 71st Chelsea appearance in the Premier League opener against Crystal Palace.
