Chelsea star Trevoh Chalobah showed off his non-football skills while the Chelsea squad collected their new EAFC 24 cards.
The football game, the first of it's kind since EA Sports ended their partnership with FIFA, was released on Friday (September 29). Chelsea filmed some of their players collecting their new cards as Chalobah, 24, gave his impression of the famous line – 'EA Sports, It's in the game' which heavily impressed the man himself who said: "I've actually got the voice, you know."
Fans on social media were equally amazed with the defender's pin-point impression of Andrew Anthony, the man behind the famed five-second intro. One fan on X, formerly known as Twitter, wrote: "Trevs impression was kinda good ngl" while another agreed as they commented: "That’s pretty good from Chalobah".

One X user was particularly dismissive of the Premier League ace's ability as they wrote: "I'm more impressed by this than his actual football." And another wrote: "Nailed it."
The homegrown Chelsea star made his debut for the side in the 2021/22 season and was quickly immersed in the first-team as he made 30 appearances in all competitions as he won the UEFA Super Cup and Club World Cup. While he remained a mainstay with 33 appearances the next season, the Sierra Leone-born player was close to leaving his boyhood club in the summer as Nottingham Forest agreed a £25million deal with Chelsea but he refused to leave. He's yet to feature this season due to a hamstring injury as he's expected to return sometime next month.
Will Trevoh Chalobah leave Chelsea in the January transfer window? Give us your thoughts in the comments section below
Last season, Chalobah opened up about the mental struggles that he and other footballers go through, admitting that the public think they're "superhumans". He told The Residency Podcast: "People don't know what players are going through, we're normal human beings. They think we're superhumans, that we don't get affected by what people say, what people do. I'm the same as you guys."
The England Under-21 international said he began suffering with anxiety during Champions League games, which he explained is different than any other game. "Playing for Chelsea last season, towards the start of the season I was suffering with anxiety. Playing for a big club, 40,000 every week, obviously I was used to it [from] going on loan but it's different playing for your boyhood club, at a big Champions League-winning team the big before that."
He added: "The start of last season, the first few weeks – the first month or so – was tough, but then I managed to pull through it. It was just talking to my family, really. It was talking to people. With my family, we're very close, we've always been close, we're always talking."
When Chalobah eventually makes his return, it'll be to a struggling Chelsea side. They currently sit 14th league after one win in their opening six games.
