John Obi Mikel highly appreciated Wesley Fofana, but advised Chelsea to buy more central defenders because the French player constantly had physical problems.
Chelsea spent £ 70 million to buy Wesley Fofana from Leicester 3 years ago, but the French player's contribution was not much. Since the arrival of Stamford Bridge, this player has constantly had to take a break from the injury.
Wesley Fofana has often been injured since coming to Chelsea. |
At one time, the former Leicester star played quite well in a few matches, but then he was injured and continued long -term rest. John Obi Mikel highly appreciated Wesley Fofana, but advised Chelsea to buy more central defenders because the French player constantly had physical problems. He said:
“When talking about the center -back position at Chelsea, I like Levi Colwill. I think he has the potential to become a top defender. He has not reached that level, but you can see his potential is great. I am sure that Chelsea needs another top center -back beside him.
Tosin Adarabioyo is a good player, but he is not a defender who can reach the highest level. So is Benoit Badiashile. The team needs to bring another leading center -back like William Saliba or Gabriel Magalhaes.
The cooperation between Fofana and Colwill last season, before he had a great injury. Chelsea played very stable, unbeaten and everything went well. But as soon as he was injured, the performance of Levi Colwill also decreased. Colwill needs a top player to play next to it, so I want to see Chelsea buy more central defenders. ”
Chelsea recently signed a contract with midfielder Mamadou Sarr from Strasbourg, but at the age of 19, it was difficult for this player to get the main stone position next season.
