Como sign England defender Chalobah from Chelsea

Como have successfully secured the services of English defender Trevoh Chalobah from Chelsea, as per an announcement made on Sunday. The 27-year-old will sign a five-year contract with the Serie A club, who will compete in the Champions League for the first time this season. Chalobah expressed his excitement about joining the ambitious side, promising to give his all to help the team achieve greatness.

The signing positions Como ahead of AC Milan and Juventus in Italy's final Champions League spot, while Inter Milan had previously shown interest but ultimately decided against making a move due to the reported fee. Como's coach, Cesc Fabregas, praised Chalobah's leadership qualities and confidence in the player's ability to elevate the team's performance.

Chalobah, who earned a late call-up to the England squad that finished third in the World Cup, could make his debut for Como in their opening match against Udinese on August 22.
