Toulouse have inquired about Fofana's situation, expressing a genuine interest in signing the 22-year-old Ivorian. Nonetheless, they might encounter challenges in aligning with his salary expectations. Chelsea have reportedly permitted Fofana to pursue a permanent transfer, as interest in the striker grows following his return to full fitness. Besides Toulouse, OGC Nice have also shown interest, with Nice potentially being in a stronger position to satisfy the financial and sporting requirements. In the meantime, Chelsea are aiming to finalize Fofana's departure in the coming weeks, with clubs from both France and Italy at the forefront of the competition. Fofana's contract at Chelsea is valid until June 2029, and his market value is currently assessed by Transfermarkt to be €6.00m.
