This summer, Rio Ferdinand chooses a Chelsea player as his "dream" addition to Manchester United.
Rio Ferdinand revealed the name of his dream Manchester United signing this summer and it turns out to be a Chelsea player.
Ferdinand spoke about the transfers on FIVE’s YouTube channel this week.

Interesting comments were made. And the former USA and England defender wants Chelsea’s Levi Colwill to arrive at Old Trafford this summer as his dream signing.

But of course we know that is highly unlikely because, as I was told and reported on my personal Substack page last week, new Chelsea head coach Mauricio Pochettino is adamant that Colwill has a bright future in bridge. And frankly, Ferdinand even admits it.

He says: “If I could have him, my dream would be [Levi] Colwill. But I think Chelsea will keep him. I think they’ve seen how good he is now.”

And he’s absolutely right, Chelsea have seen how good he is and have every intention of not only developing him but also offering him a new contract and a key role at the club, which of course is a excellent news.

Trevoh Chalobah speaks out regarding Chelsea's future amid Inter Milan transfer links
Trevoh Chalobah has been linked with a move to Inter Milan and has spent some of his free time in Italy amid speculation over his Chelsea future

Trevoh Chalobah has left the possibility of a move to Italy open amid interest from Inter Milan, but noted his focus is on Chelsea at the moment. The Blues defender is currently on holiday in the country while Chelsea are yet to return for pre-season.

football.london understood that the 23-year-old also had to decide whether or not Milan was a suitable place to live.

It is believed that the defender was set for a meeting over a potential move to Internazionale, where a deal is being negotiated with Chelsea.

Chalobah was linked with a move from Stamford Bridge 12 months ago when, alongside Tottenham, Inter and Roma were also interested in a possible move.

The Cobham product ultimately remained in west London and was one of the most successful clubs under Graham Potter and Frank Lampard.

From today’s perspective, he will face a lot of competition in the 2023/24 season.

Chelsea will add Levi Colwill to their ranks after his loan spell at Brighton, with Wesley Fofana, Benoit Badiashile, Thiago Silva and Kalidou Koulibaly also providing competition.

The latter could still leave the club as Mauricio Pochettino is known to bet on a back four instead of a back three. The season could be difficult for some who don’t have European football.

Regular playing time is said to be one of Chalobah’s priorities heading into EURO 2024 next season.

Trevoh Chalobah speaks out regarding Chelsea's future amid Inter Milan transfer links
The former Lorient player made 33 appearances for Les Bleus last season, mostly as a central defender. football.london are aware that Inter would have to put a lot of effort into signing him.

Speaking to Sky Sports in Milan, Chalobah was cautious about his future but praised Italy and Serie A.

He said: “Obviously you don’t know what the future holds. I also played in France when I was loaned out there, in England and you never know.”

Playing in a new destination is something the player has to experience. You don’t know what the future holds for you. Italy is a beautiful country and the Italian league is also very good. You don’t know what the future holds for you.

I’m still a Chelsea player and my focus is on Chelsea, but you never know what the future holds. I like it here in Italy, the weather is nice, the people are nice, the food is good and I enjoy my time here.

Chalobah’s future is yet to be decided, but with Pochettino set to build a new culture at Chelsea after his squad was downsized, the young defender could play a key role.

Former caretaker manager Frank Lampard has been very positive about Chalobah’s candidacy during his time at the club.

The former Chelsea midfielder said: “It was good and I appreciate what a quality player he is. The biggest picture is how he engages since I’ve been back. C It’s a pleasure to train with him every day because he comes with enthusiasm.

He’s easy to deal with and when you talk about the things you want he tries to implement them on the pitch – which is a good thing.”
