And if Wesley Fofana became the most expensive central defender of the summer, at least? After the transfer of Matthijs De Ligt from Juventus Turin to Bayern Munich for an amount of €67m, excluding bonuses, the French defender (21) could set a new summer record. Chelsea indeed transmitted, on Wednesday, a first proposal to Leicester in the amount of 75 M€. The Foxes executives immediately replied to their Blues counterparts that this offer was refused, without even attempting to raise the stakes. They are officially not sellers but leave a door ajar for a player they consider essential, and therefore out of market criteria.
