Chelsea defender Tosin Adarabioyo may exit Stamford Bridge this summer amid squad overhaul under Xabi Alonso
Chelsea defender Tosin Adarabioyo faces an uncertain future at Stamford Bridge as the 2026/2027 season approaches, with reports suggesting he may leave this summer during Chelsea's squad restructuring under new manager Xabi Alonso. The 28-year-old centre-back, who joined Chelsea on a free transfer from Fulham in summer 2024, has made 70 appearances across all competitions, scoring seven goals and providing one assist.
As reported by the BBC, Adarabioyo remains eligible to play for Nigeria's Super Eagles at senior level despite featuring for England at various youth levels, having never made a competitive appearance for the Three Lions. His situation is being closely monitored in Nigeria, where fans anticipate his potential availability for international duty depending on his club situation.
Chelsea failed to qualify for European competitions in the 2025/2026 season despite previously winning the FIFA Club World Cup and UEFA Conference League. As preparations for the new Premier League campaign begin, Adarabioyo will seek clarity on his Stamford Bridge future to revive his career momentum. Will a potential move secure him regular playing time and strengthen his case for Super Eagles selection under new coach?
