Chelsea agree to a €12m transfer for Molde forward Fofana

Highly-rated Ivorian forward David Datro Fofana will be coming over to Stamford Bridge in January, as Chelsea has reportedly agreed to a €12 million (£11m/$12m) deal with Molde for him.

Fofana who gave a nod to the deal on his 20th birthday, had signed a 4-year deal with Norwegian football club, Molde in February 2021. He scored 24 goals in 65 appearances.

Throwing more light on the deal, popular Italian journalist, Fabrizio Romano reported that there is a “full agreement between all parties” regarding Fofana’s move to England and that medical tests in west London will now take place.

Fofana who is now preparing to take on a new challenge with the Premier League heavyweights, will be hoping to follow in the footsteps of former Molde stars that have gone before him in England.
