Chelsea are seeking a buyer for Wesley Fofana, it has been revealed.

The French defender only moved to Chelsea last summer from Leicester City, though missed much of the first-half of the season due to injury.

Sport1 says knowing Bayern were in the market for a new centre-half, Chelsea offered Fofana to the German giants.

Bayern coach Thomas Tuchel is a fan of Fofana, having worked with him briefly at Chelsea, but his price-tag proved too steep.

The German giants are currently wrapping up a deal for Napoli defender Kim Min-jae.
