Unlikely before World Cup Fofana (knee) is unlikely to play for Chelsea before the World Cup, according to manager Graham Potter.

Impact Fofana's return should come at some point over the World Cup and he'll be a doubt to play for France. As for Chelsea, it doesn't look like he'll be back until the end of December, which means more time for guys like Trevoh Chalobah and Cesar Azpilicueta, especially following the Reece James injury.

Impact Fofana scored his first goal of the season against AC Milan on Tuesday before being forced off in the 38th minute. While the defender hasn't featured in every match, he has started all six of his appearances this year. Unfortunately for the defender, with a hectic schedule, he could still miss up to seven matches if he is out for the remainder of October.

Facing month-long absence Fofana is expected to miss around four weeks after suffering a sprained knee against Milan in the Champions League, L'Equipe reported Thursday.

Impact Fofana was subbed out of Wednesday's UCL victory over AC Milan in the first half after suffering a knee injury, but the sprain isn't as serious as it could have been and he's expected to be able to return around November and still compete for a spot in France's World Cup squad. Still, he is missing a busy period for his new side, which is scheduled to play seven games in just the Premier League and Champions League before the end of October. Chelsea have the depth in central defense to cover for him in the meantime, with Thiago Silva, Kalidou Koulibaly, Cesar Azpilicueta, Trevoh Chalobah and even Reece James and Marc Cucurella all able to play in the position.

AUGUST 24, 2022 • Associated Press

Reportedly out of squad Saturday Fofana has asked not to be in the squad for Saturday's match against Southampton, reports The Athletic.

Impact With rumors of a transfer to Chelsea swirling, Fofana doesn't want to risk anything, so it appears he won't be in the squad Saturday. There's a chance something changes in the next 24 hours, but for now it appears as if he'll be out. If Leicester continue with a back three, Caglar Soyuncu could return to the XI or with Harvey Barnes available again, a back four could be preferred by Brendan Rodgers.
