Wesley Fofana missed a training session last week as Chelsea’s pursuit of him intensified and Brendan Rodgers has conceded the defender’s behaviour was a factor in his decision to leave the Frenchman out as Leicester’s winless start to the season continued.
Fofana missed one session in the buildup to the defeat at home against Southampton on Saturday, which the 21-year-old watched from the stands, and spent another training alone. Fofana has made clear his desire to join Chelsea, who are expected to return with a third bid, but Leicester are demanding more than £80m, which would amount to a world‑record fee for a defender.
