Chelsea are set to part ways with Trevoh Chalobah after Como agreed a deal worth more than £31m for the defender, according to BBC News.
The Serie A side have reportedly struck an agreement with Chelsea for the England-eligible centre-back, who has struggled for regular game time at Stamford Bridge in recent seasons despite proving a reliable option when called upon.
Chalobah, a product of Chelsea's academy, has made appearances across defence and midfield during his time at the club but has often found himself behind other options in Enzo Maresca's pecking order.
Como, who have been busy strengthening their squad following promotion back to Serie A, are understood to view the defender as an important addition to bolster their backline as they look to establish themselves in Italy's top flight.
Full details of the transfer, including personal terms and a potential medical, are yet to be confirmed, but BBC News reports the fee agreed between the two clubs exceeds £30m — a significant sum for a player who has been on the fringes at Chelsea.
More updates are expected as the move progresses towards completion.
