Chalobah Expected to Replace Marc Guehi in Three Lions Selection
The Chelsea star followed his sibling Nathaniel in playing for England, emerging as the twenty-first duo of brothers to be selected for the national team.
The Chelsea defender is likely to join up with the England squad to cover for unavailable Crystal Palace centre-back Marc Guehi.
The 26-year-old footballer is set to meet up with the national side for England's final World Cup qualifying matches against Serbia and Albania, but it has yet to be confirmed.
The national side have already secured qualification for the upcoming competition.
Chalobah was given his first selection under England manager Thomas Tuchel in May and then played his first game against the Senegalese team.
In September, Tuchel stated Chalobah was unfortunate to be excluded from the selection for qualifiers against Serbia and Andorra, and additionally omitted him for the following October fixtures.
Tuchel has been an significant influence in Chalobah's development, having awarded him his Chelsea first-team bow in 2021.
Chalobah has played in nearly all games for Chelsea this season, with the club occupying third spot in the English top flight, in the Carabao Cup last eight and in the group stage of the European competition.
Guehi picked up a injury to his foot in Crystal Palace's Conference League victory over the Dutch side in their last match.
There are likely to be other call-ups to the squad. Newcastle manager Eddie Howe has announced that both winger Anthony Gordon (hip) and goalkeeper Nick Pope (a concussion) will withdraw from the squad.
