Edouard Mendy is set to leave Stamford Bridge this summer, with a deal in place to take him to Saudi Arabia’s Al-Ahli.

However, the transfer has yet to be officially announced by either club.

That has not stopped Fofana from bidding Mendy farewell on Instagram.

In a post shared to his story, Fofana wrote: “My big brother, I will miss you. All the best to you and your family.”

He also added three love heart emojis and a link to one of Mendy’s posts showing him holding the Club World Cup.

Fofana and Mendy only played together once for Chelsea last season following the former’s arrival from Leicester City.

Mendy was limited to just 12 appearances after losing his place to Kepa Arrizabalaga in October.

Meanwhile, Fofana’s opportunities were limited by a pair of knee injuries which hampered his first season in West London.

He follows N’Golo Kante and Kalidou Koulibaly by leaving Chelsea to head to Saudi Arabia. Hakim Ziyech is also said to be on his way to link up with Cristiano Ronaldo at Al-Nassr.

The Blues have reportedly lined up AC Milan’s Mike Maignan to replace Mendy.
