Chelsea’s Interest in Kobbie Mainoo: What The Athletic Reports

Chelsea FC is making headlines with rumors linking them to Manchester United’s young midfielder, Kobbie Mainoo. According to The Athletic, the club is interested in Mainoo as a potential transfer target. While Chelsea’s January transfer window was expected to be calm, with most attention on player outgoings, recent reports suggest otherwise.

Earlier this week, Chelsea was linked with a new center-back. Reports revealed that the club had inquired about Marc Guehi from Crystal Palace. There were also discussions about possibly recalling Trevoh Chalobah from his loan at Palace. Chelsea has also shown interest in strikers, but unless there is an attacking player sale, that move might be postponed until the summer.

Unexpectedly, Chelsea is now being connected with a midfielder—Kobbie Mainoo. According to The Athletic, Chelsea values Mainoo and has placed him on their list of potential transfer targets. However, as of now, it is still in the early stages, and there is no official move yet. Chelsea has reportedly compiled a list of players they might sign in the future, with Mainoo possibly being one of them.

Meanwhile, Chelsea has big plans for Andrey Santos. The club is considering him for the 2025-26 squad, despite strong interest from top European clubs. Santos, currently on loan at Strasbourg, will return to Chelsea once his season-long loan ends. It will be interesting to see how this situation unfolds.
