Attributed to original sourceComo confirmed that they had agreed a pact of non-aggression with Inter for Trevoh Chalobah, but now the Lariani are preparing a new €30m plus add-ons offer to Chelsea.
The defender was a target for both Serie A clubs, so Como President Mirwan Suwarso confirmed on a podcast this week that he had called up his Inter counterpart Beppe Marotta to agree a transfer truce.
“If you want him, you go for it, we’ll back out. But if you buy him, then give me one of yours,” explained Suwarso.

According to various sources including the Gazzetta dello Sport and FCInterNews , they are ready to offer €30m plus add-ons to get a deal over the line for Chalobah.
Their previous proposal of €28m plus €2m in add-ons was rejected, but this might be enough.
Chalobah is currently participating in the 2026 World Cup in the USA, Canada and Mexico, where England will face France tomorrow for the third place final.
The 27-year-old is a product of the Chelsea academy, but spent much of his career out on loan.

What happened
Italian club Como are pushing to sign Trevoh Chalobah from Chelsea with an improved offer of €30 million plus bonuses, according to reports. The previous bid was turned down by Chelsea, but the Serie A side have returned with a higher package to try to secure the 25-year-old centre-back. Chalobah spent last season on loan at Crystal Palace and remains a squad player at Chelsea, who appear willing to negotiate for the right price. The potential fee would represent a significant outlay for Como in what would be one of their most ambitious signings to date.
Chance analysis
Chalobah's potential move to Como signals both Chelsea's willingness to trim their defensive depth and Como's growing financial muscle under their Indonesian ownership. For Chelsea, receiving a €30m+ offer for a fringe defender is positive squad economics. For Como, landing a Premier League-proven centre-back would be a major statement of intent in Serie A, potentially strengthening their defensive line significantly.
Potential loss of a squad defender for Chelsea; potential major defensive reinforcement for Como if completed.
If the transfer goes through, Chelsea gain transfer funds and reduce wage bill; Como gain a Premier League-experienced defender for their Serie A campaign.
