While a lot of attention at the moment is on the end of Chelsea’s club season and the upcoming Club World Cup, there’s other stuff going on this week.
There are Nations League games, and a newly called up Trevoh Chalobah is hoping to get his first cap for England. He spoke to the England media team about how it felt to finally get the chance to represent his country:
“What a week it’s been, winning a trophy with my club, it’s been amazing, then following up with an England callup. It’s been one of my goals this season, and for the past few seasons, so I’m just glad that I’m here,” the humble centre back said.

Chalobah on Nat’s influence and pride
It was also noted that Trevoh’s older brother Nat, another former Chelsea academy product and England player, would have been delighted by the news:
“Yeah he was buzzing for me as well, obviously he’s been called up [in the past]. So yeah it was a good moment for me to share that with him and obviously my family also, who were also very happy and excited for me,” Trevoh said.
In terms of advice from big bro, the 25 year old said his brother had to him to “just enjoy it really, just enjoy it, it’s good I know a lot of the boys here, so they’ve helped me so far, it’s good. I can’t wait just to get to training and be ready for the games.”
We really hope Thomas Tuchel gets the defender on the pitch, it’s clear he rates him, having trusted him at Chelsea when few others did. This would be a really special moment for Trevoh, and for Chelsea fans watching another one of their own get a cap.
Chelsea FC should not offload chalobah , he has to stay . If they will sign guehi it is good to see more graduates from the academy playing in the first team. And the back of the defence are graduates from the academy . * James , Chalobah , guehi , colwill , acheampong , George and so on . And if ishe Samuel smith can be playing this new season plus some of the CMs from the academy and wingers . Love to see graduates from the academy playing for the first team and become world class players beating any team even elite team with that group of academy’s players togetherness it means successful academy football team . Good for the club and they will more attract young players to come in the Chelsea FC and become elites . Chelsea FC should discover their own elites player’s from the academy from defence to attack. Good luck to the new season hope everything will be success , lifting up the trophy from EPL to UCL . God bless Chelsea FC .
