Chelsea have dropped a huge hint as to whether Todd Boehly can complete the transfer of Wesley Fofana before the summer window slams shut. The 21-year-old has been heavily linked with a move to west London as Thomas Tuchel looks to bolster his backline following the departures of Antonio Rudiger and Andreas Christensen.
football.london understand the Blues will table a fresh bid for the Leicester City defender at some point this week. It's said that the Foxes could be willing to sell Fofana for £85million, though Chelsea's next offer isn't expected to match their asking price.
While the summer transfer window is coming to a close, the west Londoners have growing confidence that Brendan Rodgers' side will cash in. And, two key factors could accelerate the Frenchman's move; his eagerness to swap the King Power Stadium for Stamford Bridge and the departure of Ethan Ampadu.
