England's The Athletic emphasized how important Fofana's defense is in Chelsea on the 5th (Korea time) and at the same time explained why Chelsea cannot fully trust Fofana.
Born in 2000, Fofana grew up in Saint-Etienne, France, where she has a reputation for raising promising players well. Fofana, who has shown potential in Saint-Etienne since the 2019-2020 season, challenged the English Premier League (EPL) by moving to Leicester City in the 2020-2021 season.
Fofana immediately became the core of Leicester's defense. At 185cm, he is not an overwhelmingly large center back, but Fofana has very good athletic ability. The advantage is control of the right to provide, and you can defend a wide range by having fast feet. He also has some pass skills.

Leicester said they could never hand over Fofana, the team's future, but Chelsea offered a huge €80 million transfer fee. It was at the level of the transfer fee that Liverpool paid when they signed Virgil van Dijk.
That's how Fofana got to wear the Chelsea uniform. However, as soon as he transferred, he decided to spend four months due to a knee injury. After returning from long-term injury, he played well, but he didn't pay for it at all. However, even before the 2023-2024 season began, he was out for the season due to ruptured anterior cruciate ligament, making fans even more heartbroken.

The Athletic have not played in an average of 34 games in the last three seasons. This is the result of a long recovery from numerous knee problems and the horrific leg fracture suffered in August 2021. So far, he has played only 20.5 percent of his first-team appearances in all tournaments at Chelsea.
Of course, Fofana won't get hurt because she wants to get hurt, but no team trusts a player who can only play one out of five games. No matter how good you are. If the player is already brought in at a high price, the level of criticism will inevitably increase. At this rate, it's not strange for Chelsea to clear Fofana right now.
It's a problem even if it's organized. Fofanaji, who was brought in for 80 million euros, but his ransom fell sharply to 30 million euros (about 45 billion won) after repeated injuries. It is impossible to recover the principal.
