Chalobah loaned to Napoli

Nathaniel Chalobah has moved on loan to Italian side Napoli for the remainder of the season.

It is the 20 year olds sixth loan move away from the club, having previously been loaned to Watford, Nottingham Forest, Middlesbrough, Burnley and Reading. However he is highly rated at the club by our academy staff.

Chalobah isn’t in Mourinho’s current plans though and he’s yet to make a first team appearance in a competitive match.

Chelsea are keen for the player to gain experience before he can be part of the first team squad and try to establish himself as a future regular.

Over the summer, Chalobah was part of the England Under 21s squad in the European Championships and his move to Napoli will be another good experience providing he gets game time.
