"That's according to Christian Falk in his CF Bayern Insider column, with the German journalist providing some insight into Fofana's situation. As recently reported for CaughtOffside, Chelsea have Fofana on a list of targets in attack, along with others such as Morgan Rogers and Kenan Yildiz. Now Falk is also linking Fofana with Bayern, and it makes sense that the talented young Belgium international would have a host of suitors from around Europe."
"Malick Fofana in action for Belgium (Photo by Omar Havana/Getty Images) It's worth noting, as made clear in the full report here, that Fofana is not Chelsea's priority, with Aston Villa star Rogers being top of their list. The Blues might end up turning to Fofana if they cannot land Rogers, but if Bayern have a stronger interest then they could well end up in pole position for the 20-year-old."
"Lyon tend to cash in on their best young talents eventually, so it will be interesting to see if he ends up moving to Chelsea or Bayern in the near future. It will also be interesting to see if Fofana is targeted to replace Michael Olise at Bayern, as Falk has also reported on some uncertainty over his future as the likes of Liverpool and Manchester City keep an eye on his situation."
Chelsea and Bayern Munich are both linked with Lyon winger Malick Fofana, a 20-year-old Belgium international. Chelsea have Fofana on a shortlist that includes Morgan Rogers and Kenan Yildiz, but Aston Villa's Rogers remains Chelsea's priority. Fofana is valued around €50m, making him a tempting option for clubs needing wide signings. Lyon regularly sell their top young talents, increasing the likelihood of a move. Bayern could target Fofana potentially as a replacement for Michael Olise, whose future is uncertain amid interest from Liverpool and Manchester City.
