Fofana deal, Gordon desire, Aubameyang confidence and 10 Chelsea transfers still to be completed

Seven days. That's all that remains of the 2022 summer transfer window. And it leaves new Chelsea co-owner and interim sporting director Todd Boehly facing a battle against the clock to complete the rebuild of Thomas Tuchel's squad.

Yet the Blues are far from done. A move for Wesley Fofana from Leicester City remains in the pipeline; what Boehly has to do is match the Foxes' £80million asking price for the 21-year-old, who is currently training with the club's Development Squad having missed a training session last week.
