Chelsea look set to add Wesley Fofana to their squad before the transfer deadline passes on September 1. The Blues have been in the market for new centre-backs this summer after Antonio Rudiger and Andreas Christensen left the club.
Thomas Tuchel has already added Kalidou Koulibaly to his ranks, but there has always been the expectation that another would join him at Stamford Bridge. The name most heavily linked has been Leicester City man Wesley Fofana and it now looks like a transfer will come to fruition.
Fofana was left out of the Foxes squad that took on Southampton last weekend and he will also be missing from the teamsheet when they take on, of all teams, Chelsea on Saturday afternoon. That is enough to suggest a move to the Blues will happen and football.london understands that a deal has finally been agreed between the two clubs.
