Shocking agreement
Chalobah had a brilliant and surprising breakthrough at Chelsea under former manager Thomas Tuchel but has since lost his way. He was a regular starter under interim manager Frank Lampard during the latter part of last season but was injured during the pre-season tour.
The 24-year-old recently made his long-awaited return, but there is still speculation that he could be sold and the club needs to balance its books. The sale of Chalobah would represent pure profit for Chelsea as he progresses through their academy. This is a key reason why the Blues are also open to selling Conor Gallagher despite his importance to Pochettino.
United will need central defensive reinforcement this summer with the possibility of several centre-backs leaving. Jonny Evans and Raphael Varane's deals expire on June 30 and no talks have taken place. The club could be interested in signing more than one centre-back and a deal could be struck for Chalobah due to his league experience.
Still, it would be a big surprise if United secured his signature. The 24-year-old has played just 4 competitive matches in the last 9 months. The Red Devils may need to assess his fitness history over the coming months before deciding whether to make a bid to secure his signature from their Premier League rivals.
