Biggest transfer in the history of AS Saint-Etienne (35 million euros), will Wesley Fofana become the most expensive defender in the world of football? According to information from The team, the 21-year-old was reportedly the subject of a €75m offer from Chelsea, but was turned down by Leicester. If the Foxes had accepted this proposal, the French international Espoirs would have cost more than Matthijs De Ligt, bought 67 million euros this summer by Bayern Munich.
However, the Blues, who saw Andreas Christensen (Barcelona) and Antonio Rüdiger (Real Madrid) leave free during the offseason, still want to strengthen in central defense despite the recruitment of Kalidou Koulibaly, the former defensive leader of Naples.
