Trevoh Chalobah: Como sign defender from Chelsea in £30m deal

August 9, 2026

By

Italian club Como have signed defender Trevoh Chalobah from Chelsea in a deal worth more than £30m.

The 27-year-old has signed a five-year contract with Cesc Fabregas’ side, who secured Champions League qualification by finishing fourth in Serie A last season.

Chelsea will receive an initial £25.7m, with a further £5.1m available in add-ons following protracted negotiations.

The centre-back, who has two senior England caps and was a late call-up to their World Cup squad, leaves his boyhood team after nearly 20 years, having joined Chelsea as a child.

“Trevoh is an important signing for us and a player who represents the level of ambition we have at this club,” said Fabregas, who was briefly a team-mate of the centre-back during his time at Stamford Bridge.

“He is a leader who can raise the level of the team, and I am very happy that he has chosen Como.”

Chalobah said: “I’m thrilled and honored to be here at Como: it’s an ambitious, rising project, and working with manager Cesc Fabregas again is truly special.”

The England international made 151 appearances in all competitions for Chelsea and won five trophies, including the FA Cup in 2018 and Conference League in 2025.

He also had loan spells with Ipswich, Huddersfield, Lorient and Crystal Palace.

World number one Jannik Sinner to miss Cincinnati Open because of knee injury

By

World number one Jannik Sinner has withdrawn from this week’s Cincinnati Open because of a knee injury, but still expects to be fit for the US Open later this month.

The 24-year-old Italian won his fifth Grand Slam singles title by beating Alexander Zverev in the Wimbledon final last month, but has not played since.

“After consulting with my doctors and my team, I have to announce that I need to withdraw from the Masters 1000 tournament in Cincinnati,” Sinner said.

“My right knee has been bothering me and even though we have been working hard with my medical team, I have to accept I’m not ready to compete yet.

“I’m very disappointed not to be able to play in Cincinnati. I can’t wait to be back next year and I’m now focusing on getting ready for the US Open.”

The Cincinnati Open main draw begins on 13 August, with the final on 23 August. Zverev and 24-time Grand Slam champion Novak Djokovic are among those in action.

Spain’s Carlos Alcaraz won the 2025 event and was leading 5-0 in the final against Sinner, before the Italian had to retire because of illness.

But world number two Alcaraz, 23, will not be there to defend his title as he has not played since the Barcelona Open in April because of a wrist injury.

The US Open, the last Grand Slam of the year, takes place in New York from 30 August to 13 September.
