Chelsea shows interest in Jacobo Ramon, a defender partly owned by Real Madrid

Chelsea is pursuing Jacobo Ramon, a 21-year-old center-back currently playing for Como in Italy. The defender, who previously came from Real Madrid's academy, has impressed in his first full season since leaving the Spanish giants. Chelsea's interest was revealed during discussions about Trevoh Chalobah’s potential transfer but has since evolved into a focus on Ramon, who is viewed as a promising addition to their defensive lineup. Real Madrid retains a 50% stake and has buy-back options, but sources indicate they are not rushing into any decisions regarding Ramon at this time.
