Brendan Rodgers seems to accept that Wesley Fofana could be sold this summer and has warned Leicester not to be 'afraid' of making such a big decision with Chelsea facing a race against time to rectify Kalidou Koulibaly's mistake.
The Blues' defensive woes were exposed for the first time this season at Elland Road in game week 3 as a rampant Leeds United hit three past a sluggish Chelsea backline who were prone to making many mistakes. Koulibaly was sent off late on which capped off a terrible outing for the 31-year-old who had a reality check of life in England after a strong start against Everton and Tottenham respectively. His red card now means that he will be missing for the Leicester fixture in game week 4
Therefore, with Trevoh Chalobah likely to be kept out of the fray ahead of a potential loan move away, all focus will be on trying to secure the Fofana transfer in time for the Frenchman to immediately face his former club. The player in question made his stance known with his omission from the Southampton loss. A decision that was made by manager Brendan Rodgers who made it bluntly clear that he cannot carry passengers who aren't with it mentally.
