Man Utd, Chelsea weigh up bid for Leicester defender Wesley Fofana

Manchester United are interested in Leicester City defender Wesley Fofana.

The young stopper enjoyed an impressive late season finish after recovering from a fractured leg suffered in preseason.

RMC says United are keen on Fofana this summer market.

The 21-year-old centre-back was set to make a France debut this week, but was excused by coach Didier Deschamps to get married.

It is rumoured that the Foxes will demand a fee of £68million with Chelsea also keeping their eyes on the Frenchman.

The Blues are in the market for new centre-halves after losing Toni Rudiger and Andreas Christensen to Real Madrid and Barcelona respectively.
