Malo Gusto seeks Chelsea exit amid interest from seven clubs
TeamTalk reports that Chelsea would consider offers for the France defender, whose Premier League starts have fallen to three under Xabi Alonso.
Chelsea defender Malo Gusto wants a January departure to secure more regular playing time, according to TeamTalk, which reports interest from seven clubs. Chelsea are reportedly willing to consider offers for the 23-year-old, although details of a possible deal remain unclear.
TeamTalk identifies Liverpool, Tottenham and Manchester City as potential destinations in England. It also names RB Leipzig, Como, AC Milan and Atletico Madrid as interested clubs. Liverpool previously asked about Gusto during the summer and are open to recruiting a specialist right-back in 2027, with Ronald Araujo currently playing in the position.
Gusto has made ten appearances this season, with only three Premier League starts since Xabi Alonso became Chelsea manager. Competition includes summer arrival Marco Palestra and Josh Acheampong, who has also been used at right-back, while Reece James remains at Chelsea.
The France international joined from Lyon in the summer of 2023 for £25.5 million (€30 million). Last season, he made 49 appearances and started 36 matches. Chelsea sought £74 million during the summer, when Paris Saint-Germain explored his availability and Manchester City also showed interest.
