Former Chelsea goalkeeper, Rob Green in a recent statement has reacted to the Blues’ move for Wesley Fofana from Leicester City.

Green described Fofana, who is close to joining Chelsea as a great player and one for the future.

The former Blues goalie added that should Fofana finally arrives at Stamford Bridge this week, he will help unlock England star, Reece James’ quality.

He said with Fofana in the Blues squad, James will be able to move forward.

The reports revealed Chelsea and Leicester City have already reached an agreement for the transfer of Fofana, with a fourth bid worth around £70m eventually successful.

“[Chelsea] are playing catch-up and have to pay the money,” Green told the BBC.

“They will get a great player. He immediately ticks the boxes and is also one of the future

“Reece James’ quality is on the ball. Wesley Fofana ticks a box for the centre-half position but also strengthens elsewhere as James can go forward,” he added.
