Leicester City boss Brendan Rodgers has confirmed that Chelsea transfer target Wesley Fofana wants a move to Stamford Bridge this summer. It comes after the Blues had a third bid worth roughly £70million rejected for the Frenchman as they look to strengthen the backline.
Thomas Tuchel has already looked to replace the outgoing Andreas Christensen and Antonio Rudiger by signing Kalidou Koulibaly and Marc Cucurella in recent weeks. The defensive third has been anything but secure in recent weeks though, with five goals conceded in their opening three games.
The last match was a 3-0 thrashing away at Leeds United, where a mixture of errors were made and caused by the home side's pressing. One of those also includes a red card for new recruit Koulibaly, who picked up a second yellow and now faces suspension against Leicester City at the weekend.
