Chelsea have been dealt a blow in their attempts to sign a new defender in the summer transfer window with Wesley Fofana agreeing a new contract with Leicester City.
The Blues were linked with a move for the 21-year-old defender in December, with Goal reporting that the west Londoners were eyeing the Foxes centre-back as a possible replacement for Antonio Rudiger.
Rudiger, as well as Cesar Azpilicueta and Andreas Christensen, all see their respective contracts at Stamford Bridge expire at the end of the season.
