Chelsea transfer news: Top starlet Nathaniel Chalobah set to leave on loan…again

Chelsea midfielder Nathaniel Chalobah is a loan target for clubs in three different leagues.

With the Blues flying high in the Premier League, the 22-year-old has struggled to break into the first team with any regularity this season.

The Sierra Leone-born star has managed a total of just 71 minutes of league action so far, spread across eight substitute appearances.

Chalobah is one of the number of young stars regularly shipped out by Chelsea in recent years, with the youngster spending time at Napoli, Reading, Burnley, Middlesbrough, Nottingham Forest and Watford during his Blues career.

And now, according to reports in Italy, the England Under-21 international could be again set for a temporary move away to get some regular first-team football.

Chalobah has been linked with a return to Serie A but it has now been suggested that clubs in Germany and Spain are chasing him ahead of a potential season-long loan deal next term.

Meanwhile Watford, where the midfielder spent the 2012/13 season, are also reportedly considering a swoop.
