Ben Chilwell, sidelined at Chelsea this season, is eager to secure a January move, with West Ham emerging as a potential destination. Former Chelsea boss Graham Potter, now at the Hammers, reportedly wants to bring the 28-year-old to bolster his squad. Chilwell has not featured in any matchday squad under Enzo Maresca, and the move could reignite his career.
- Desperate for Minutes: Chilwell has been completely out of favor at Chelsea, failing to make a single Premier League appearance or start this season.
- Potential Destinations: West Ham, managed by Graham Potter, leads the race, but Manchester United, Borussia Dortmund, Crystal Palace, and Everton have also expressed interest in the England international.
- January Priority: Chelsea informed Chilwell last summer that he was not in their plans, making a mid-season move likely to help him find regular playing time.
- Reunion with Potter: Potter managed Chilwell during the 2022/23 season, and a strong relationship could facilitate the move to West Ham, where Potter is targeting squad reinforcements.
- National Team Revival: A move and consistent performances could see Chilwell push for a return to the England squad under current manager Thomas Tuchel.
