On bench versus Fulham Fofana (illness) is on the bench for Wednesday's game against Fulham.

Impact Fofana was assessed prior to this game, and it seems he could see limited minutes in the second half following his recovery from illness. The defender had started in four of the previous six games in all competitions before getting hurt, tallying 39 clearances, nine interceptions and eight tackles over that span. He'll challenge Tosin Adarabioyo and Trevoh Chalobah for a center-back spot for the rest of the season.

Will be assessed Fofana (illness) still has to be assessed ahead of Wednesday's clash against Fulham, interim coach Calum McFarlane said in the press conference, according to Football London. "He's...

Impact Fofana missed Sunday's clash against Manchester City due to illness and will be assessed on Tuesday to know if he can be part of the squad for Wednesday's clash against Fulham. If the Frenchman had to miss another game and not be deemed fit enough to play, Benoit Badiashile will likely start in the central defense again.

JANUARY 6 • ROTOWIRE

Out with illness Fofana is out for Sunday's match against Manchester City due to an illness, according to Nizaar Kinsella of the BBC.

Impact Fofana is dealing with a fever that is too much for the defender to play, as he will sit out against City. He will likely look to recover quickly from the minor issue, with a return set against Fulham on Wednesday. Trevor Chalobah and Benoit Badiashile are instead starting in the middle of the defense.

Chelsea receive huge double boost as Maresca confirms two star players available vs Everton Enzo Maresca confirmed Cole Palmer and Wesley Fofana are both available for Saturday's Premier League home match against Everton.

Available against Everton Fofana (eye) is back available for Saturday's clash against Everton, coach Enzo Maresca said in the press conference, according to Simon Johnson from The Athletic.

Impact Fofana suffered a eye injury against Atalanta in the Champions League on Tuesday but is back available for Saturday's clash against the Toffees as expected by coach Enzo Maresca after Tuesday's game. Fofana started three of his last four appearances for the Blues and could play a decent role on Saturday, even if he will likely wear a mask to avoid any setbacks from that issue.

DECEMBER 12, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Hopeful for Saturday Fofana (eye) could play Saturday despite coming off with a cut during Tuesday's clash with Atalanta, manager Enzo Maresca told reporters.

Impact Fofana was forced off after taking a boot to the face that left him with a cut. It seems after initial examination that he avoided anything too serious as he could play Saturday. If he does play Saturday it might require protective equipment, though that wouldn't be anything to impact his performance.

Imperious defending in draw Fofana registered one tackle (zero won), 11 clearances and two interceptions in Saturday's 0-0 draw against AFC Bournemouth.

Impact Fofana exhibited his quality Saturday as he led the Chelsea clean sheet effort with 11 clearances in a languid 0-0 draw at Bournemouth. In additon to clearing his lines, the central defender managed one block and two interceptions across his 90 minutes of play. Over nine appearances (eight starts) across all competitions, Fofana has appeared in successive fixtures just once as the club seeks to maintain the defender's health and fitness.

Not in squad Saturday Fofana (undisclosed) isn't available in the match squad for Saturday's clash against Burnley.

Impact Fofana was expected to start on Saturday against the Clarets but ultimately missed the match squad for undisclosed reasons. The Frenchman is replaced by Tosin Adarabioyo in central defense, and the latter should see a greater role if the issue with Fofana turns out to be serious.

Assists in return Fofana assisted once to go with one shot (zero on goal) and one chance created in Wednesday's 5-1 win versus Ajax.

Impact Fofana, who had been out for a month due to an undisclosed injury, returned to the pitch Wednesday. He marked his return with an assist on Marc Guin's opener in the 18th minute, his first goal contribution of the season. On the defensive end he won three duels, intercepted four passes and made two clearances in his full 90 minutes of action.

Starting against Ajax Fofana (undisclosed) is in the starting XI for Wednesday's clash with Ajax.

Impact Fofana was reportedly not going to be rushed back from a concussion, but evidently he passed all protocols, as he's been deemed fully fit for a return Wednesday. He's straight into the starting XI, setting him up for his third start and fourth appearance this season. Fofana missed the last four matches due to concussion.

Impact Fofana has been dealing with several injuries in recent seasons and is now being managed carefully by the medical staff to help him regain full fitness and avoid any setbacks. The center-back is highly rated by coach Enzo Maresca, and the staff want him to return in a similar way to Reece James, who can now play full games without suffering any issues. Until the Frenchman returns to full fitness, Josh Acheampong is expected to see increased playing time in the backline.
