Brendan Rodgers makes decision on selling Fofana
<h4><span style="font-size: 20px;">Despite Chelsea&#8217;s interest, Leicester City manager Brendan Rodgers has ruled out the prospect of selling defender Wesley Fofana.</span></h4>
<p><span style="font-size: 20px;">Though they recently added Kalidou Koulibaly to their roster, Chelsea has been linked with a move to sign Fofana this summer.</span></p>

<p><span style="font-size: 20px;">Thomas Tuchel, the manager of Chelsea, tried to entice Matthijs de Ligt to Stamford Bridge, but the Dutch star chose to sign with Bayern Munich.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 20px;">Additionally, Jules Kounde, who finally transferred from Sevilla to Barcelona, was not signed by Tuchel.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 20px;">Chelsea is currently preparing deals for RB Leipzig&#8217;s Josko Gvardiol and Fofana after returning to the drawing board.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 20px;">When questioned about the rumors involving Fofana, Rodgers said that the 21-year-old center-back is not for sale.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 20px;">&#8220;<span style="font-family: Poppins; color: var(--c-contrast-800);">Naturally, he’s a top talent,” Rodgers was quoted by Metro UK as saying.</span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 20px;">“He’s not for sale. He still has lots of improvements to make. He’s very happy here, he really enjoys being here.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 20px;">“Naturally, he will attract the interest of other clubs. Our job, in not signing anyone so far, is to at least keep the players we have. I know that’s the intention of the club.”</span></p>
