Wesley Fofana is 'immature', 'naive' and 'damaging his career' since his £70m move to Chelsea, says former Blues centre back Frank Lebouef, as he picks out the key moment against Man United that he 'must do better' on

Former Chelsea centre back Frank Lebouef has criticised Wesely Fofana for 'damaging his career' since joining Chelsea last summer.

The 22-year-old arrived from Leicester for £70 million last summer and has failed to live up to his price tag so far, making 18 appearances in an injury-hit season.
