1 min read

Chelsea have confirmed an agreement to sign David Datro Fofana in January.

The 20-year-old Molde striker will join the Blues on January 1, 2023 and is expected to be joined by Vasco da Gama’s 18-year-old midfielder Andrey Santos shortly.

Fofana, who turned 20 last week, could be thrust straight into first-team action following the injury to fellow striker Armando Broja earlier this month.

Todd Boehly has acted on plans to back Graham Potter after the 47-year-old replaced Thomas Tuchel as Chelsea boss back in September. Fofana has scored 15 goals and provided a further five assists for the Norwegian outfit so far this season.

The striker completed medical tests ahead of his £10.5million move to Stamford Bridge last week.
