Brendan Rodgers sends Wesley Fofana transfer message as Chelsea see two bids rejected

Leicester City boss Brendan Rodgers says there have been no new fresh bids for Wesley Fofana amid transfer interest from Chelsea this summer.

The 21-year-old has been heavily linked with a move to the Blues in the transfer window after impressing for the Foxes since his move from Saint-Etienne in 2020. It has been reported that Chelsea are preparing a third bid for Fofana, although they have other central-defensive targets they are considering should that approach fail.

Leicester have already turned down two offers from the Blues for the highly-rated defender, with neither close to the Foxes' valuation of the player. The East Midlands club do not want to sell Fofana and are confident of keeping him after he signed a new five-year contract in March which runs until 2027.
