Ben Chilwell, whose position at Chelsea has completely collapsed, almost moved to Dortmund in the transfer window last summer.
"Dortmund considered recruiting Chelsea left-back Chilwell, but decided to give Algiura Kabar, who is highly regarded, a chance instead," the British 'Goal dotcom' reported on the 22nd (Korea time).
Chilwell is a former defender of the English national team. He grew up in Leicester City and became one of the top players in the league. He joined Chelsea ahead of the 2020-21 season. In the first season, he had a disappointing performance due to his injury to win the UEFA Champions League title.
The injury was repeated. In the 2021-22 season, he was put on the operating table due to an anterior cruciate ligament injury. The following year, he had a hamstring problem. Prior to the last season, he was elected as Chelsea's vice-captain, but failed to fulfill his role due to problems with his hamstring and knee.
He was in a bad position ahead of this season. "Chilwell is with us, but he has not participated in training for the past few days because he is ill. The reason he did not play in a friendly with Inter Milan is that he is struggling to find the right position, even though he likes the play," said Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca.
"There were 22 players who trained. If you ask every player, they will tell you that they want to play against Manchester City. But that is impossible. If you train every day and don't get time to play, it is not good for both the players and me."
Maresca openly advised Chilwell to transfer. "I have to make a decision. Maybe it's better for Chilwell to leave and get some time to play. The transfer window is still open, so we'll see what happens," he said.
Chilwell failed to find a new team in the transfer window last summer. He didn't have a chance to move to another team. According to Golcom, Dortmund considered recruiting Chilwell. However, instead of recruiting Chilwell, 18-year-old defender Algiura Kavar, who is highly regarded by his team, will be given a chance to play as backup.
Chilwell stayed at Chelsea, but things do not change. Maresca recently said, "Things have changed a little bit now. We will consider whether to use him in each game," but he played only one game this season. Even that was a 45-minute appearance in the EFL Cup, which was less important. 안전놀이터
According to GoalCom, Napoli is considering recruiting Chilwell. "Coach Antonio Conte was impressed by Chilwell, a former member of the English national team. He can completely recruit him next summer after signing on loan from the transfer market this coming winter," the media said.
