Tosin Adarabioyo Open to Chelsea Exit Amidst Benfica Interest
13 Aug
Summary
- Tosin Adarabioyo is considering leaving Chelsea due to limited playing time.
- Benfica manager Marco Silva is keen on reuniting with the defender.
- Premier League clubs have also contacted Chelsea regarding a potential transfer.
Chelsea defender Tosin Adarabioyo is reportedly open to leaving the club, with enquiries coming from Benfica and other Premier League teams. The 28-year-old has seen his first-team opportunities limited, starting just eight Premier League matches last season. The impending arrivals of Maxence Lacroix and the return of Levi Colwill from injury further intensify competition for defensive spots.
This situation has led Adarabioyo to consider his future, with significant interest reported. Benfica, managed by Marco Silva who previously worked with Tosin at Fulham, is keen on a reunion, especially after selling Antonio Silva. However, English clubs are also vying for his signature, with at least one other Premier League team having already contacted Chelsea.
Adarabioyo's contract has less than two years remaining, and his sale would represent pure profit for Chelsea, aiding their efforts to balance the books after substantial summer spending.
