Chelsea are open to talks with interested clubs over a loan deal for Ben Chilwell, with the deal set to last up to 18 months.

The 27-year-old left-back has struggled with injuries over the past season, and this season the club have changed coach to Enzo Maresca, which has resulted in the English full-back making just one appearance in the Carabao Cup.
There have also been reports of the Blues potentially sending Chilwell out on loan, with several clubs in England and Spain showing interest in the former Leicester City player.
Chilwell, 27, has seen his role significantly diminish at Chelsea since Enzo Maresca’s arrival. Despite being the club’s vice-captain last season, he has had little playing time, accumulating only 45 minutes this season and not featuring in the Premier League or Europa Conference League. This situation has led Chelsea to explore options for his departure during the summer, albeit without success.
TRB Football recently revealed that Chelsea are preparing to consider releasing Chilwell on loan for 18 months and are ready to let interested teams negotiate from January.
The main factor is the huge salary and transfer fee that Chelsea has set, causing many clubs to not be ready to permanently recruit him.
The most likely solution is a loan deal, with the London club seeing an 18-month period as a win-win timeframe, with Chilwell currently contracted until mid-2027.
The report concludes that West Ham, Fulham and Brentford are all interested in Chilwell, who is likely to enter talks with โปรโมชั่น ufabet Chelsea when the January transfer window opens.
