# Everton: Toffees make contact over Trevoh Chalobah

**[Everton](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/everton-fc-news/) have reportedly made contact with the representatives of Trevoh Chalobah over a potential summer move.**

### The Lowdown: Out of favour

After the arrivals of Kalidou Koulibaly from Napoli and Marc Cucurella from Brighton and Hove Albion respectively, it seems as if Chalobah has fallen out of favour at Chelsea.

The central defender has been an [unused substitute](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/trevoh-chalobah/leistungsdatendetails/spieler/346314/plus/0?saison=2022&verein=631&liga=&wettbewerb=&pos=&trainer_id=) in all three of their games in the Premier League so far this season, and so his future at Stamford Bridge now seems uncertain.

### The Latest: Everton contact

Co-writing in his latest piece for [90min](https://www.90min.com/posts/trevoh-chalobah-inter-roma-rivalling-premier-league-interest-chelsea-defender), [transfer expert Graeme Bailey](https://twitter.com/GraemeBailey) has revealed that the Goodison Park outfit, as well as fellow Premier League rivals Leeds United, Nottingham Forest and Southampton, have all contacted Chalobah’s representatives ahead of a possible move.

He is also attracting interest from both Inter Milan and AS Roma in Serie A, who want to take him on loan, as he is unlikely to leave Chelsea on a permanent deal.

### The Verdict: Not a priority

After already bringing in James Tarkowski and Conor Coady from Burnley and Wolves respectively, signing another centre-back should not be a priority for the Merseyside club.

Hailed as ‘[unbelievable](https://www.football.london/chelsea-fc/players/trevoh-chalobah-chelsea-rio-ferdinand-21329289)‘ by legendary Premier League defender Rio Ferdinand after an impressive performance in the UEFA Super Cup last season, there is no doubt that Chalobah has quality, having made [30](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/trevoh-chalobah/leistungsdatendetails/spieler/346314/plus/0?saison=&verein=631&liga=&wettbewerb=&pos=&trainer_id=) senior appearances in total for the Blues.

However, with Dominic Calvert-Lewin out injured, the Toffees should really be looking for a striker instead to fill the void that he has left before conducting any other business.
