Wesley Fofana
25-Year-Old
Chelsea
Premier
On bench versus Fulham
Fofana (illness) is on the bench for Wednesday's game against Fulham.
ANALYSIS
Fofana was assessed prior to this game, and it seems he could see limited minutes in the second half following his recovery from illness. The defender had started in four of the previous six games in all competitions before getting hurt, tallying 39 clearances, nine interceptions and eight tackles over that span. He'll challenge Tosin Adarabioyo and Trevoh Chalobah for a center-back spot for the rest of the season.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Could have left Chelsea
Fofana considered his departure from Chelsea in the summer, according to French outlet Free Foot.
ANALYSIS
The 23-year-old recently stated he considered leaving Chelsea to join his hometown club, Marseille, this summer, but ultimately, he decided to stay with the Stamford Bridge club. Fofana will fight for a first-team role at Chelsea, but the center-back has his work cut out since he has a lot of competition at the same position.
