Chelsea head coach Liam Rosenior will take charge of his side in a fourth different competition when he oversees their Champions League group phase tie against Pafos on Wednesday night. 

The Englishman took charge of the Blues earlier this month, following the departure of Enzo Maresca, and has since had matches in the FA Cup, Carabao Cup, and Premier League.

Rosenior will now turn his attention to the Champions League, with his side sitting 13th in the 32-team table at present.

Only the top eight qualify automatically for the knockout stages, which means the Blues are currently set to go into a play-off where they will bid to progress.

In the meantime, it has emerged that Chelsea are set to sell one of their strikers this month.

Journalist Fabrizio Romano claims that Chelsea are set to recall forward David Datro Fofana from a fruitful loan spell in Turkey, in order to find him a permanent move away from the club.

Fofana, 23, first joined Chelsea from Norwegian side Molde back in 2023 but has since made just four appearances for the west London giants, failing to score a goal.

He has had loan spells with Union Berlin, Burnley, and Goztepe, and was sent on loan to Turkish outfit Karagumruk before the start of the current campaign.

During his spell with the Clarets, Fofana scored four goals in 15 games for the club.

The Ivory Coast international has netted eight goals in 15 games for the club across all competitions, but Romano claims that he will now return to Stamford Bridge.

It is claimed that Chelsea and Fofana’s representatives will then look to find the striker a permanent move away from the club, three years after he arrived in London.
