Chelsea signed Fofana from Leicester in the summer of 2022 in a deal worth an initial £70m plus add ons, but his time at Stamford Bridge has been difficult.

Fofana is coming to the end of the his fourth season at Chelsea, but he’s been plagued by injury and has only made 68 appearances.

The Frenchman is believed to be one of the highest earners at Chelsea, and whilst he’s been available more often than not this season, his performances in general haven’t reached the standard required.

Fofana is under contract until 2029, and has previously been linked with a return to France, with Marseille said to be interested.

Chelsea are in the market for at least one centre back this summer, with there question marks over the future of several of the current centre backs.

Fofana has now been linked with Barcelona who are looking to reinforce their defence, but Mail Sport have reported the France international has no intention of leaving this summer.

Chelsea have been linked with both Murillo and Jan Paul van Hecke, with the centre back department set to be majorly revamped in the transfer window.
