Brendan Rodgers has spoken out on Wesley Fofana's decision to leave Leicester and join Chelsea, claiming that there were "other influences" involved in taking him away from the Foxes - and that the defender was not behind the controversial statement posted on his social media.
The Leicester boss came under immense scrutiny during the final weeks of the transfer window as speculation built over his star defender as the former-Liverpool boss slowly backed down from saying his player wasn't for sale until admitting that he was no longer training with the first team.
Fofana completed a £70million deal to join Chelsea earlier this week after intense talks between the two parties as Todd Boehly managed to work a fee to below a world record number for a defender, with the total price with add-ons amounting to £75million.
