Antonee Robinson’s profile keeps rising, and Chelsea are now the latest side linked with the Fulham full back.

Robinson almost secured a move to AC Milan a few years ago when he was just a teenager, which raised a few eyebrows given he was playing in the Championship at the time. But those scouts were on the ball – in the years since he’s established himself as a really reliable and versatile player for the Whites.

Now Chelsea are interested, along with with a few other top teams, according to an interview on Simon Philips’ Substack.

Robinson is able to play on both sides, meaning he would be a great backup for Ben Chilwell as well as being able to cover for the injury prone duo of Reece James and Malo Gusto on the right.

We can’t see a move coming in January, while we’re still scrambling to get FFP in order, but once the sales of Lewis Hall and Ian Maatsen go through in the summer, we can see something happening.
