Ben Chilwell has struggled for regular game time at Chelsea and he needs to move on in search of regular playing time. The English international is unlikely to be a regular starter at Stamford Bridge.
As per a report by Spanish outlet Fichajes, West Ham United are prepared to provide him with an exit route, and it will be interesting to see if he’s willing to join them. West Ham need a quality left back and the 27-year-old would be a key player for them. Meanwhile, Chelsea are willing to get rid of him permanently. The Blues have set an asking price of €15 million for him.
Chilwell could be a bargain at the price. Even though he has not managed to establish himself as a player for Chelsea, he is certainly good enough for most teams in the Premier League, and the opportunity to snap him up at €15 million cannot be turned down.
It is fair to assume that multiple clubs will be keen on securing his signature, and it will be interesting to see where he ends up. He needs to join a club where he will get regular first-team action. The defender must seek game-time assurance before joining a new club.
The Englishman has shown his quality in the Premier League in the past with Leicester City and even Chelsea. There is no doubt that he would improve the likes of West Ham if he joins them. The Hammers have been quite vulnerable at the back, and Chilwell will help them tighten up defensively. He is quite effective going forward as well, and he could add a new dimension to their attack.
