He'd probably look better for someone like Fulham who are likely to play a much deeper line.
He's still crap, but imagine he's more suited to defending his own 6 yard box than anything else

We should be paying them.
If they play him regularly they are dead certs to go down.
Too good to be true.

BN prediction is that he does really well this season wherever he ends up. He won't make it here and never made sense as a City player, but he's a very good centre back for the right manager in the right team.

Absolutely agree. He's an excellent CB in the right system as he has proved. I think he will go to Fulham and do very, very well.

Chelsea working on deals to sign Wesley Fofana and Denzel Dumfries
By David Ornstein55m ago
Chelsea are working on deals to sign Wesley Fofana from Leicester City and Denzel Dumfries of Inter Milan, The Athletic understands.
The Stamford Bridge club intend to continue strengthening their squad as the new Premier League season approaches, with Fofana and Dumfries high among the targets being pursued.
Leicester are believed to value centre-back Fofana at a figure in the region of £80million to £85m ($97m to $103m), but Chelsea hope that could be lowered by offering players to their Premier League counterparts.
Given the Midlands side have no desire to sell someone who is key to their plans, contracted until 2027 and said to be happy at the King Power Stadium, it will be a difficult transfer for Chelsea or any other suitor to complete at the current time.

But their interest in the France Under-21 international is firm and the same applies to 26-year-old Netherlands international Dumfries.
Inter need to raise money this summer — particularly after talks with Paris Saint-Germain over Milan Skriniar stalled because of their price demands — and Chelsea’s admiration for the right wing-back is strong.
They have already dealt with the Italian team this summer over Romelu Lukaku’s loan.
Their attempts to recruit Fofana and Dumfries are not a case of one or the other — but both.

He’d be there in a millisecond if we accepted the offer

Surely it's going to take near £100 million. He'll go eventually but one more season please Wes...
