Club career

Chelsea

Born in Freetown, Sierra Leone, Chalobah joined Chelsea at the age of eight.[citation needed] He signed his first professional contract with Chelsea in June 2016 and signed a new contract in March 2018.[citation needed] His youth honours at Chelsea include the UEFA Youth League in 2015–16, the FA Youth Cup in 2015–16 and 2016–17, and the Under-18 Premier League in 2016–17.[4][5][failed verification]

He was named by Antonio Conte as a substitute for the 2018 FA Cup Final victory against Manchester United on 19 May 2018 at Wembley Stadium despite never having previously played a professional game.[6][7] Chelsea won the match 1–0, and Chalobah did not enter the field.[8]

2018–19 season: Loan to Ipswich Town

He signed for Championship club Ipswich Town on a season-long loan deal in June 2018.[9] He made his professional debut on 4 August, starting in a 2–2 draw with Blackburn Rovers.[10] Two weeks later he scored his first senior goal, equalising in a 1–1 draw with Aston Villa at Portman Road.[11] On 6 October, he scored a late winner in a 3–2 win against Swansea City, earning Ipswich their first league win of the season.[12] Despite primarily playing as a centre-back during his time in the Chelsea academy, he played as a central midfielder for Ipswich during his first season in senior football. Chalobah featured regularly for Ipswich during the 2018–19 season, playing 44 matches and scoring 2 goals for the team, who were relegated to League One.[13]

2019–20 season: Loan to Huddersfield Town

On 8 August 2019, Chalobah signed a new contract with Chelsea through to the 2022 season, and began a season-long loan at Huddersfield Town.[14] He made his debut five days later in a 1–0 home loss to Lincoln City in the first round of the EFL Cup, playing the full 90 minutes.[15] He scored his first goal for Huddersfield on 21 August against Cardiff City, initially equalising to level the score at 1–1, in a match that Huddersfield went on to lose 1–2.[16] He made 38 appearances in all competitions for Huddersfield during the season, scoring once.[17]

2020–21 season: Loan to Lorient

On 18 August 2020, Chalobah signed a new contract with Chelsea until 2023 and joined French side Lorient on loan for the 2020–21 season.[18] He made his league debut as a substitute on 13 September, in a 3–2 loss against RC Lens.[19] He scored his first goal for Lorient on 27 January, netting the opening goal in a 3–2 win against Dijon. Chalobah had another productive loan spell at Lorient, scoring 2 goals in 30 appearances, including scoring on the final day of the season in a 1–1 draw against Strasbourg.[20]

2021–22 season

On 11 August 2021, Chalobah made his debut for Chelsea in the 2021 UEFA Super Cup against Villarreal,[21] as his side won 6–5 in a penalty shoot-out after the match finished in a 1–1 draw after extra time.[22] Three days later, Chalobah made his Premier League debut in Chelsea's opening match of the season against Crystal Palace where he also scored his first ever Premier League goal in a 3–0 win.[23]

International career

He has represented England at youth level from Under-16 up to Under-20, captaining all four teams at various stages. In November 2014, Chalobah captained the England under-16 team against Scotland in the Victory Shield.[24] In May 2016, Chalobah was captain of the England under-17 team that lost to Spain in the quarter-final of the 2016 UEFA European Under-17 Championship.[25]

Chalobah was included in the England under-19 squad for the 2017 UEFA European Under-19 Championship.[26] An ankle injury sustained in the final group game against Germany ruled him out for the rest of the tournament.[27] England went on to defeat Portugal in the final.[28]

On 30 August 2019, Chalobah was included in the England U21 squad for the first time and made his debut during the 3–2 2021 UEFA European Under-21 Championship qualifying win against Turkey on 6 September 2019.[29][30]
