Leicester have immediately rejected a third bid for defender Wesley Fofana from Chelsea worth ?70m in total.

Chelsea’s latest offer was believed to be ?60m with a possible ?10m in add-ons – but the fee was unlikely to hit the full ?70m total because the additional fees have been described to Sky Sports News as “ambitious” targets.

Fofana wants to move to Stamford Bridge this summer, and was left out of Leicester’s defeat to Southampton at the weekend, because manager Brendan Rodgers said his mind wasn’t in the right place.
