Stefan Posch and Matthias Braunöder are set to get another prominent teammate at Como 1907.

Trevoh Chalobah is leaving Chelsea FC and moving to Lake Como for 30 million Euros. The 27-year-old English international is definitively leaving his youth club and signing a five-year contract with the Serie A club.

With the exception of four loan spells, the natural central defender has played for the "Blues" since 2007.

Two Austrians Set to Depart

Now, Chalobah, who participated in the World Cup finals with the "Three Lions" this summer, becomes the second most expensive signing in the club's history.

With Brazilians Yan Couto (Borussia Dortmund) and Kaiki (Cruzeiro), head coach Cesc Fabregas's club has already signed two players for the full-back position this transfer summer.

Meanwhile, the future of ÖFB national team player Stefan Posch is not yet clear. Last week, rumours of another transfer to Germany surfaced again. Matthias Braunöder, from Burgenland, is also likely to leave the club this summer.
