REECE JAMES appears to have welcomed Wesley Fofana to Chelsea… by copying his barnet.
The Chelsea star is in action today against Leicester at Stamford Bridge.
Reece James debuted his new haircut
Wesley Fofana sported a similar barnet
Fofana, 21, has not been selected as his move from the Foxes to West London is imminent.
And Chelsea stars appear ready to welcome him with open arms.
James, 22, arrived at the Bridge today sporting a new hairdo, with a heart shape shaved into his temple.
It didn’t take fans long to clock the style – as Fofana has also sported something very similar.
One Twitter user wrote: “Fofana vibes welcome him.”
While a second tweeted: “@Wesley_Fofanaa Reece James welcomes you already.”
A third joked: “He copies the guy that’s going to save him from playing rcb.”
Another added: “Man got the heart cut like fofana.”
Fofana is set to sign a six-year deal at Stamford Bridge after Chelsea finally agreed a deal with the Foxes.
The Blues had been ready to walk away after growing frustrated when their third bid worth around £70m was turned down earlier this week.
But Leicester finally relented when a fourth improved offer was lodged.
Fofana missed the Foxes’ 2-1 defeat to Southampton last weekend, and was spotted not celebrating his side’s goal during the match.
Famous Leicester fan Gary Lineker labelled their outgoing defender “the most prodigiously talented young central defender in the world.”
Fofana subsequently replied with a crying with happiness emoji, followed by two prayer emoticons.
