New Chelsea star's former club write to FIFA in bid to get transfer CANCELLED

Chelsea only confirmed David Datro Fofana's arrival at Stamford Bridge on Saturday, but already the transfer deal has been hit by controversy.

The striker has arrived in an £8million deal from Norwegian side Molde, having scored 24 goals since his arrival two years ago. He was in the stands for Chelsea's defeat to Manchester City in the Premier League on Thursday night.

And having finally been given clearance, he has now been confirmed as the Blues latest arrival, on a six year contract. But the deal could potentially be scuppered after his boyhood team wrote to FIFA in a bid to get his move to the Blues cancelled.
