'Harry was fantastic': Rodgers takes a dig at Fofana in comparison with Maguire

Speaking at a press conference, Leicester manager Brendan Rodgers took a dig at Wesley Fofana's behaviour as the centre-back is trying to force a move to Chelsea.

When asked if this situation is similar to the time when Leicester sold Harry Maguire to Man United, Rodgers disagreed: "No, it was totally different. I was aware over the course of the summer that there was a possibility that could happen.

"Harry in terms of his behaviour and his focus for the club, he was fantastic right until the last minute he was with the team and with the squad and then he moved on. So no, it is different.

"Over the seasons here we’ve lost obviously Ben Chilwell as well, but this [Fofana situation] unfortunately is just a little bit different. But our focus is with the team and the players that are available.

"He won’t be available for the weekend. He has trained with our Under-23 squad," Rodgers added about Fofana, as quoted by Metro.

Leicester have already rejected three bids from Chelsea, but the Blues are not going to back down and are expected to return with a new bid.
