Chelsea seems determined to facilitate the departure of their young forward, Datro Fofana, 21, to AEK Athens. After a loan spell at Burnley last season, the London club has reportedly resumed negotiations for the player to find minutes and continuity away from Stamford Bridge. Recent reports from The Athletic suggest that discussions between both parties have gained momentum in the past hours, bringing the Ivorian footballer closer to the Greek league.
Chelsea, aware of the need for Fofana to keep developing, seems willing to accept favorable conditions for AEK to finalize the deal. The "Blues" priority is for the striker to continue gaining experience, something he hasn't achieved in England, making a new loan move the ideal solution for all parties involved.
Chelsea's board still not convinced
Fofana, who arrived at Chelsea as a young promise, has struggled to secure a spot in the first team and did not get the expected prominence at Burnley. Given this scenario, AEK Athens emerges as an attractive option for both the English club and the player himself, who needs to find an environment where he can fully realize his potential.
With negotiations in an advanced stage, signs point to Fofana being close to embarking on a new chapter in Greek football, seeking the playing time he lacks in England. Nevertheless, it remains uncertain whether the young forward will move to Greece on loan or if he will be transferred permanently.
