The France Under-21s centre-back, who joined City in 2020, enjoyed a landmark debut campaign in England, lifting the Emirates FA Cup and scooping the Club's Young Player of the Season prize. After a lengthy injury lay-off, Leicester's No.3 is almost ready for a return.
On Monday afternoon, the Club announced a new five-a-half-year deal for Fofana - much to the delight of the Blue Army.

Superb news this. Another great contract extension for the Foxes. Really important to keep a top quality core of players, Fofana is definitely in that category. Boy we’ve missed him this season. Can’t wait to see him back out there for us!! #Fofana2027 https://t.co/mxWLCv1aHv
