During the summer transfer window, Chelsea hopes to improve their center-back position, and several players are being considered as potential additions to the Stamford Bridge roster.
Wesley Fofana has had a terrible deal of trouble with injuries since joining the Blues in the summer of 2022. During that time, the Frenchman missed 111 games across all competitions. After undergoing surgery earlier this month to treat a hamstring issue, the 24-year-old will be sidelined for the rest of the season.
Marseille is considering hiring him. Everything didn’t work out when they came for him last summer. This summer, they will return, according to the article. After missing much of the season, Fofana is already out for the season. He’s only played 14 games so far this season.
The France international made just 22 appearances in his rookie season and was sidelined last season. The greatest skill in this game is availability. This is not possessed by Fofana. Despite being a huge supporter of Fofana, Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca is not optimistic about his ability to stay fit.
Fofana is one of the names Chelsea’s chopping block this summer
Chelsea is prepared with their decision about injury-prone star Wesley Fofana, as they are prepared to profit from the defender, according to Santi Aouna. His awful injury record has outshone his skill, and the Blues will probably lose a lot of money on their significant investment in the French center defender. Chelsea is prepared to let go of Fofana along with a number of other players, yet it is unclear if this matter will be settled.
The West London club under the Todd Boehly/Clearlake Capital partnership has struggled with poor recruitment, and the former Saint-Etienne player is a prime example of this. Due to their interest in a few individuals, Chelsea is already considering reorganizing their defensive lineup. They want Bournemouth’s Dean Huijsen, and although the Blues see him as a Benoit Badiashile replacement, the Spaniard may also replace Fofana in that defense.
Chelsea is certain that they will be able to sign Huijsen, although the Spanish international is up against fierce competition. The club is prepared to let go of the injury-prone Fofana and a few other underperforming players in its defensive system before the summer, so other defensive names will be on their transfer shortlist.
