The Blues were determined to offload the Englishman last summer to balance their books, but the centre-back did not find a suitable club.

Bayern Munich were interested in landing his services, but they were only interested in signing him on loan.

Nottingham Forest made a late bid before the transfer deadline, but Chalobah was not keen on making the move.

Chalobah, who was injured at the time, preferred to stay with the Blues. He had a good end to the season with them.

Despite this, the Blues are still exploring a summer sale and they are prepared to accept £25m for his transfer.

There are no formal proposals at the moment, but reports claim that a number of European sides are monitoring him.

West Ham United have been linked with him in recent months. Chalobah has the chance to stay in London with them.
