Rodgers says Leicester will not sell Fofana

Brendan Rodgers says Leicester will not sell Wesley Fofana this summer.

Chelsea are pushing to sign the French centre-back, who is contracted at King Power Stadium until 2027.

The Foxes have reportedly placed an £85m price-tag on Fofana, but Rodgers insists he is not for sale.

"Naturally, he's a top talent," Rodgers said. "He's not for sale. He still has lots of improvements to make. He's very happy here, he really enjoys being here.

"Naturally he will attract the interest of other clubs. Our job, in not signing anyone so far, is to at least keep the players we have. I know that's the intention of the club."
