Chelsea Complete Signing Of Wesley Fofana For £70m
~1.6 mins read
Chelsea have signed French centre-back Wesley Fofana from Leicester City on a seven-year deal for £70m plus add-ons.

A France Under-21 international, Fofana joined Leicester from French side Saint-Etienne in 2020 and has since made 37 Premier League appearances.

He was restricted to just seven league games during the 2021-22 campaign after breaking his leg in a pre-season friendly against Villarreal.

"The two last days have been really big for me and I'm very happy," he said.

"I trained this morning with the team and it's a dream for me. I'm very excited to start playing games for the fans and the club.

"I'm here to win trophies - the Champions League, Premier League, FA Cup, Carabao Cup, everything. I came here to win and the club is built to win trophies so I'm here to continue that."

Even with add-on payments, the deal for the 21-year-old does not exceed the £80m that Manchester United paid Leicester for Harry Maguire in 2019 - still a world record for a defender.

Chelsea chairman Todd Boehly said: "Wesley is a hugely promising defender who has already proven his quality in the Premier League at a young age. We are delighted we were able to bring one of Europe's most exciting talents to Chelsea and further strengthen that area of our squad, both for this season and many more to come."

Fofana was part of Brendan Rodgers' starting XI as Leicester won the FA Cup for the first time in their history by beating Chelsea in the 2021 final.

"Gutted to lose him but wish Wesley Fofana well," former Leicester striker Gary Lineker posted on social media.

"Every player wants to play Champions League football so it's understandable.

"Chelsea fans, you've got the most prodigiously talented young central defender in the world. Yes, I believe he's that good."

This summer Chelsea have brought in England forward Raheem Sterling from Manchester City for £50m, Senegal defender Kalidou Koulibaly from Napoli for £34m, English midfielder Carney Chukwuemeka from Aston Villa for £20m, Spain left-back Marc Cucurella from Brighton for £60m and Italian midfielder Cesare Casadei from Inter Milan.

Thomas Tuchel's side are eighth in the Premier League after Tuesday's 2-1 defeat at Southampton, a second loss in their past three games.

PSG Wants Victor Osimhen To Replace Mbappe
~1.1 mins read

Mbappe could leave Paris this summer, and the Parisians could replace him with a Nigerian striker


Ten-time Ligue 1 champions PSG could swoop in for Super Eagles talisman Victor Osimhen to replace Kylian Mbappe if the French man leaves Parc des Princes.


Mbappe has been the shining light for the Parisians since he left Monaco four years ago. The 23-year-old striker has banged in 167 goals and assisted 84 in 214 appearances.


However, the Frenchman could be on his way out of Parc des Princes this summer as he has refused to renew his contract, which expires at the end of the season.


Real Madrid has emerged as a possible destination, but nothing concrete has emerged yet.


Nonetheless, the Parisians risk losing their star man, and they would be searching for another attacking dynamite.



According to Get French Football News, PSG have their sights set on 23-year-old Osimhen to replace Mbappe.


Osimhen has been outstanding for Napoli since he joined from Lille two years ago. The Nigerian forward is enjoying his best season ever. Osimhen has proved his indispensability to Napoli, notching 17 goals and six assists in 29 appearances.




The Partenopeans want €100million for their talisman, but it should not be an issue for the Paris millionaires, as they have continuously pulled their weight in the transfer market.

EPL: Evra Predicts Man Utd Vs Liverpool, Arsenal, Chelsea Matches
~1.0 mins read
Ex-Manchester United defender, Patrice Evra, has predicted some of the Match Day 3 fixtures that will be played in the Premier League.

The early kick-off will see Tottenham Hotspur host Wolves.

Evra told BetFair: “Conte will be so disappointed with their performance last time out against Chelsea, and he will be making sure they do everything to win at home.

“Wolves have only taken one point so far from their two matches and they look like they need a bit more time to get going. I can only see Spurs winning this one.
“Prediction 2-0.”

In Saturday’s late kick-off, Arsenal are looking to continue their perfect start to the season, after picking up two wins from two matches.

“Arsenal have to beat teams like Bournemouth if they want to get in the top four and I think they understand this now, especially with a player like Gabriel Jesus who can help you win these games.

“Prediction 3-0,” Evra said.

Chelsea, who drew 2-2 with Spurs last weekend, travel to Leeds United on Sunday.

Evra has predicted a 2-0 win for the Blues at Elland Road.

The big game this Game Week will be Manchester United vs Liverpool at Old Trafford on Monday.

“Liverpool aren’t looking well at the moment though, so I think it will be a lot closer than people think. Prediction 0-1,” he said.

Commonwealth Gold Medallist Nwokocha Provisionally Suspended For Doping
~0.7 mins read
Nigerian sprinter Nzubechi Grace Nwokocha, who won gold in the 4x100m relay at this year's Commonwealth Games, has been provisionally suspended for the use of banned substances, the Athletics Integrity Unit (AIU) said on Saturday.

Nwokocha, 21, ran the anchor leg in Birmingham last month as Nigeria beat England and Jamaica to take gold.

"The AIU has provisionally suspended Nigerian runner, Nzubechi Grace Nwokocha, for the Presence/Use of Prohibited Substances (Ostarine & Ligandrol) (Article 2.1 and Article 2.2)," the body said in a statement on Twitter.

Ostarine and Ligandrol are both anabolic agents prohibited by the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA).

A provisional suspension means an athlete is temporarily banned from competition before a final decision is taken at a hearing conducted under WADA rules.

Nwokocha qualified for last year's Tokyo Olympics and also entered the 100m and 200m at the world championships in Eugene this year, reaching the semi-finals in both events.
