Thomas Tuchel a 'huge fan' of Adama Traore as Chelsea dealt Wesley Fofana transfer problem

Here's the latest Chelsea transfer rumours on Monday, August 1.

Adama Traore interest

Chelsea are eyeing a move for Wolves winger Adama Traore, according to journalist Andreas Korssund. The reporter claims that Thomas Tuchel is a "huge fan" of the Spaniard, who could provide cover at right-wing-back.

The Blues have been heavily linked with a number of options to cover this position, given the importance of Reece James, with Tottenham linked back in January for a similar move with Traore.

Wesley Fofana problem

Leicester City won't sell both Wesley Fofana and James Maddison this summer, and there's no guarantee either will leave the club in the window. That's according to CBS journalist Ben Jacobs, who claim that the Foxes are unwilling to lose two key players in the market, with just one month left to go.

football.london understands Chelsea have made contact over a move for Fofana in the past week, with the Blues looking to add further depth to their centre-back options.

Malang Sarr offer

Fulham have tabled an offer for Chelsea defender Malang Sarr, says Sky Sports reporter Dharmesh Sheth. The 23-year-old joined the Blues on a free transfer from OGC Nice in 2020, spending a season on loan at Porto before returning for some sporadic appearances last campaign.

The newly promoted side and west London neighbours will be hoping they can land the Frenchman, however, with other offers said to be on the table for a number of defenders.
