Wesley Fofana may have just confirmed Chelsea’s next signing.

So far this summer, Chelsea have recruited Tosin Adarabioyo, Estevao Willian and Omari Kellyman.

With it only being July 1, though, the Blues are unlikely to finish there.

In fact, Chelsea should definitely land at least one more player before the transfer window closes after Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall underwent a medical with the club on Sunday.

It is a move that will see the midfielder quickly reunite with his former manager Enzo Maresca.

Wesley Fofana hints Chelsea deal is done

Fofana seems excited about one imminent arrival at Chelsea.

The central defender has shared a post on his Instagram story containing a few emojis and the number 22, which is, of course, the number Dewsbury-Hall wears at Leicester.

Brighton & Hove Albion were also keen on Dewsbury-Hall, but they have lost out to their Premier League rivals.

The 25-year-old’s expected arrival could see Conor Gallagher depart Chelsea. The Englishman is into the final 12 months of his contract, giving his club a decision to make this summer.

According to The Athletic, Chelsea have agreed to pay Leicester £30m for Dewsbury-Hall’s signature.
