According to reports Chimbo could be on his way out in January, but whether or not there will be any clubs interested in signing the player is another matter.
Chimbonda started at left back against Manchester United at the weekend, his third start in November, but he was highly unimpressive.
Gael Givet and Martin Olsson can fill that role, so it just may be that the 31 year old could well be surplus to requirements.
West Ham were interested in August but opted to sign Lars Jacobsen.
