Wesley Fofana, the Leicester City defender who has emerged as a target for Chelsea, is desperate to join the Blues before the end of the transfer window. But he may not be the last player to leave the Foxes. There are reports that Liverpool, Manchester United, and Newcastle are all interested in him.
The Best Young Football Defenders you Don't Know yet
The 21-year-old defender is regarded as the best young centre-back in Europe under 22. However, Leicester have refused to sell him, despite two lucrative offers from Chelsea. So is the Blues set to offer the world's most expensive defender?
Enzo Fernandez is a World Cup-winning star for Argentina. He played a key role in the team's win, and won the Young Player of the Tournament award. In fact, he scored a brilliant goal in the 2-0 victory over Mexico in Qatar.
Fernandez's move to Benfica last summer was a breakthrough moment. He had been a promising youngster at River Plate, but was a major surprise when he was named in the Argentina squad for the World Cup. His performances in Qatar were huge, and he was part of the side that won the tournament.
While Fernandez has already made his international debut, he will want to prove his value at a higher level in England. Despite being a young defender, he will look to play a more prominent role at Chelsea. This is a move that the Blues are keen to make, as they have a lack of central defenders.
Fernandez has also been linked with Arsenal, Real Madrid, and Manchester United. And with Jorginho out of contract, Chelsea will be looking to strengthen their midfield. Luckily, the Blues have some money to invest in an emerging talent.
Chelsea have reached a pre-agreement with Molde FK for striker David Datro Fofana. He will move to Stamford Bridge in January, reportedly for around PS8 million. Despite this, he is ready for an adventure in the Premier League.

Chelsea transfer news, live! Latest reports, rumors, updates
Meanwhile, Chelsea have been busy securing young talents such as Gabriel Slonina from Chicago Fire and Carney Chukwumeka from Aston Villa. They are also prepared to rival Real Madrid and Liverpool for Jude Bellingham, as they are both keen on the Borussia Dortmund midfielder.
One player who is unlikely to be signed is Mykhaylo Mudryk, who joined Shakhtar Donetsk from Monaco last season, but was a regular first-team player at the start of the season. Despite this, Arsenal were said to have made an opening bid of PS100million.
Fernandez's release clause is still in place at Benfica, and he is believed to be interested in a move to a top-six Premier League club. If Chelsea don't manage to secure him, they're sure to be in the running for Alexis Mac Allister, as well. Atletico Madrid, however, have already shown interest.
As well as signing talented youngsters, Chelsea have been making early moves to add to their already-strong squad. David Datro Fofana is the second offensive signing under the new Potter regime.
