22-year old Chalobah has been at Chelsea since he was a 10-year old. Having spent the majority of his time with the Blues out on loan, he has been used by Antonio Conte sparingly this term. Chalobah has made 8 substitute appearances in the English top division totalling up to 71 minutes in which he has grabbed an assist as well. He featured from the start against West Ham in the League Cup, having made a substitute appearance in the previous round against Leicester City.

Chalobah, who can play as a defender as well as a midfielder has had to wait for a long time for his opportunities in the Chelsea first team. Known for his extremely efficient work-rate both in attack and defence, the 22-year old is strong aerially and can be an asset in the midfield for Chelsea in the middle of the park if they decide to rest N’Golo Kante for the FA Cup contest.
