The 21-year-old Ivorian joined Chelsea from Norwegian side Molde in January 2023 and has spent time out on loan to gain first-team experience.

Details regarding the prospective destination club have not yet been confirmed.

According to football journalist Fabrizio Romano’s X post on Monday, “Chelsea recall David Datro Fofana from loan as he’s set for a new move in the upcoming days/weeks. Chelsea and Fofana’s camp are working on a permanent exit.”

Fofana’s recall indicates that Chelsea are keen to oversee the next stage of his career directly, ensuring a smooth transition to a club where he can continue his development.

Since his arrival at Stamford Bridge, Fofana has yet to make a significant impact in the Blues’ first team.

The club has prioritised his development through loan arrangements, providing opportunities for regular senior-level playing time.
