A seasoned veteran, he has been a fringe squad member this season (10.9% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 2.4 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Chalobah.

On the season, Chalobah graded 3 for current form (age-blind), on 0 goals, 0 assists and 2.4 defensive actions per 90.

Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 8 → 3). Over the 7 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2020/21.

On long-term talent our Rating reads 23. At 31 Chalobah is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 4.7 reflects that trajectory.

Clean sheets

2.4 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 1 clean sheet across 3 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (17th of 24) is harder than the bare numbers suggest: a back line under more pressure has to defend more often and protects fewer leads, so the volume — and any clean sheets — carry real weight.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 10.9% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Age curve. At 31, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 22.5 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.4 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.9× and falling).
