OFFICIAL Chelsea statement released – powerful striker has completed summer move
David Datro Fofana has joined Union Berlin on loan from Chelsea for the 2023/24 season.
CHELSEA were desperate to sign a striker last January and made the decision to splash the cash and bring Fofana to the club in a deal that cost the club some serious transfer money.
He was really making a name for himself and scored a few goals for Molde before Chelsea come calling – so big things were expected of the lad when he actually joined.
However – Fofana has struggled for games and is yet to score for his new club, which has led to alot of speculation in the media that the Blues will now allow him to leave on loan.
Now – The 20-year-old striker has now joined the German side.
WHAT CHELSEA SAID
‘The striker joined Chelsea in January from Norwegian club Molde and was incorporated into the men’s first-team squad.
‘He was handed his debut against Manchester City in the FA Cup and further appearances followed in the Premier League for the 20-year-old.
‘The Ivory Coast international will now continue his development with Union, who will compete in the Champions League this season for the first time in the club’s history.
‘Good luck, David!’
