  "account": "Italian club Como have signed Chelsea defender Trevoh Chalobah in a deal exceeding £30m. The 27-year-old has committed to the Serie A side with a five-year contract under Cesc Fabregas. Chelsea will receive £25.7m initially, with a potential £5.1m in add-ons following negotiations. Chalobah, who has two senior England caps and a late World Cup call-up, departs his childhood club after 19 years. The centre-back left Stamford Bridge for Como, praising the ambitious nature of the project and Fabregas' leadership. Chalobah made 151 appearances for Chelsea, winning five trophies, including the FA Cup in 2018 and Conference League in 2025. His loan spells previously included Ipswich, Huddersfield, Lorient, and Crystal Palace.",
