In August 2022, Chelsea owner Todd Boehly had decided to take the wild shopping spree at Leicester. The then Chelsea manager Thomas Tuchel wanted to put the young centre-back Wesley Fofana to work quickly, Boehly wanted it differently. It was this quarrel that soured the relationship between the two egos, which ended with the sacking of Tuchel. Three years later, it is Wesley Fofana himself who creates a bad atmosphere at Stamford Bridge.
When Chelsea welcomed Crystal Palace to what was to be a tame Premier League opener (0-0), Enzo Maresca had paired Trevoh Chalobah with Josh Acheampong in central defence, not Fofana.

Fofana clearly didn’t take lightly the fact that the season started on the bench (he was out for much of last season with injury and surgery). The 24-year-old shocked supporters when he deleted all mention of Chelsea from his Instagram account, apparently in a criticism of the club about his playing time.
Here are some of the reactions from supporters:
“What’s going on with Wesley Fofana? He deleted everything related to Chelsea on his Instagram account.”
“This guy is another Garnacho on our team. Very unprofessional.”
“Wesley Fofana could end up as one of the three worst Chelsea signings of all time.”

“I’m tired of Wesley Fofana’s injuries and the nonsense. He must go, no doubt about it.”
