Chelsea have completed the signing of France Under-21 international central defender Wesley Fofana from Leicester City, the two clubs announced on Wednesday. Fofana, 21, has signed a seven-year deal at Stamford Bridge, the London outfit said. The transfer fee is undisclosed but reports in the UK said Chelsea would pay their Premier League rivals 70 million pounds ($81.3m) plus bonuses for the former Saint-Etienne player.
Deadline day in recent years has often felt more like a mopping-up operation than a frantic rush to land a big deal, but this year there is a sense that everyone is still on the lookout for a last-minute star arrival. For Chelsea, their poor start to the season could lead them back into the market for another forward, especially if they sell Christian Pulisic or Hakim Ziyech, or both. Manchester City meanwhile are now in talks for Borussia Dortmund defender Manuel Akanji, and Arsenal are reportedly still on the hunt for another midfielder.
The Guardian says Chelsea are pushing to sign 33-year-old Barcelona striker, and former Arsenal captain, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang. The Blues are reportedly hoping for a transfer triple after signing Wesley Fofana, 21, from Leicester, with hopes to also secure Everton’s 21-year-old winger Anthony Gordon.
Barcelona and Chelsea could now be set to strike a loan agreement for striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang before the closure of the transfer window. The two clubs have reportedly been negotiating for much of the summer over the future of the 33-year-old Gabonese international, with stories suggesting Barcelona were looking for a fee of around £25 million.
