Chelsea agree personal terms with Leicester defender

Chelsea have agreed personal terms with Wesley Fofana of Leicester City.

The Blues made a step forward in their pursuit of a new centre-back.

According to French journalist Ignazio Genuardi, the London club are working hard to bring the 21-year-old to Stamford Bridge.

They have already sealed personal terms, but there is the small matter of agreeing a fee with Leicester.

The Foxes are loathe to lose Fofana so close to the new season, given their other centre-back options.

Transfer expert Fabrizio Romano recently stated that Chelsea do admire Fofana, but no deal is close.

Chelsea missed out on signing Jules Kounde and Presnal Kimpembe this summer.
