Romano: Blues Could Add to Backline

Chelsea Could Replace Chilwell Amidst Defensive Reshuffle

Fabrizio Romano has revealed that Chelsea are considering a replacement for Ben Chilwell, who could be on his way out of Stamford Bridge this summer. The Blues have been active in the transfer market and are open to further strengthening their defensive options.

Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca has been vocal about Chilwell’s struggles to fit into his system, suggesting the left-back could benefit from a move elsewhere. 

With Marc Cucurella and new signing Renato Veiga providing competition, the club may be inclined to cash in on Chilwell if a suitable offer arrives.

Manchester United have been linked with a move for the former Leicester City star, as they look to bolster their own defensive options.
