Chelsea defender Trevoh Chalobah has been called up to the senior squad for the upcoming World Cup qualification matches. This marks a major milestone in the 26-year-old’s career, as he now stands on the cusp of making his debut for the Three Lions.
Chalobah, who was raised in England, however, with his inclusion in the senior England setup, the talented center-back now faces a critical decision over his international future.
If Chalobah features in any of the upcoming World Cup qualifiers, he will be tied to the England national team, becoming ineligible to represent Sierra Leone going forward. This presents a dilemma for the young defender, who has had the opportunity to develop his skills and gain valuable experience within the English youth system.
As Chalobah prepares to join the England squad, all eyes will be on his decision-making process. Should he feature in the World Cup qualifiers, it will effectively end his eligibility to represent Sierra Leone, the country of his birth. This choice will undoubtedly have a significant impact on his international career and the legacy he hopes to leave behind.
The inclusion of Trevoh Chalobah in the England squad marks a significant moment for the young defender.
