Wesley Fofana Biography
“Start early” is the mantra some people swear to live but, it is doubtful Wesley had that in mind when he started his football adventurer at the age of six. Still, it is clear that his having started out early contributed massively to the big success that he is today, at 22.
Born in France to an Ivorian father and French mother, Fofana delved into the world of football at the age of six, playing for Repos Vitrolles. He was devoted enough to stick it out in the youth system until he was able to snag his first professional contract as a footballer.
Saint-Étienne was where the professional career began. In the intervening years, though, he had played for other clubs, including Chelsea and Leicester. Today he is internationally famous as a defender.
Family
Although married, Wesley Fofana doesn’t have a child yet. So his immediate family comprises himself and his wife, Cyrine, details about whom you can find in the section below.
Parents
The name of Wesley’s mother is not known but his father was an Ivorian man named Moustapha Fofana.
Father
Wesley Fofana’s father was a man known as Moustapha Fofana. He is of Ivorian working and was said to be a working-class bloke at the time his son was born. Not much is known about him beyond that.
Mother
Recalling his days in France, Wesley once noted: “My mum was insulted and my sister targeted at school when I left France.” Wesley’s mother is a French lady and she gave birth to her son in France. That’s the much that’s known about her. The player himself rarely speaks about his mother.
Siblings
Wesley Fofana is the fourth of six children. The love for football apparently runs deep in the family, as some of his brothers are themselves professional footballers. For instance, hisbrother Youssouf Falikou Fofana has played for Stade d’Abidjan and ASEC Mimosas. His other brother Yahia Fofana has also played for AS Monaco
Brother(s)
The Frenchman is not an only child. He has brothers, some of whom are – or were – in the same sport as himself: football. The most famous of his brothers are mentioned in the “Siblings” section of this post.
Sister(s)
Does Wesley Fofana have sisters? You bet. But they rarely pop in the news, so not much is known about them.
Children
The soccer ace had no known children at the time of writing. he has, however, not ruled out having children in the future. For now, he appears focused on his career as a professional footballer.
Wife
Wesley is currently in a position that gives him access to some of the world’s most desirable women. However, there is only one woman in his orbit right now or appears to be – his model wife, Cyrine. Both are currently the same age: 22. As a Muslim, Fofana is entitled to more than one wife, but it is unclear if he will end up with a seraglio.
Lifestyle
Wealthy footballers are known for their love of luxury. Fofana wouldn’t say no to the good life, but he isn’t exactly one to rub it on your faces
Net Worth
While he is doing pretty well as an athlete, Fofana would not be dragged into discussions about his net worth. So the field is wide open for speculations and estimations. A report by WTFoot put his net worth at 59 million pounds. We cannot independently verify the figure, however.
Cars
Most athletes are known as much for their skills in their sports of focus as for their love for pricey rides. Only a few of them are not too concerned about that. So, into which group does Wesley Fofana fall? It is unclear where to put him, as the footballer is not too loud about his whips. At any rate, he is known to own an Audi. He probably has other cars as well.
House
Wesley Fofna is wealthy enough to buy choice properties in some exclusive areas around the world. At the time of writing, he was known to live in London, England. It is, however, unclear what his home looks like. At any rate, it should be somewhere he is cool with.
Stats
In the sporting universe, stats are very important as they gave clues about the sportsman’s form from a particular period up to the present. in most instances, they can also determine the athlete’s value to clubs that might want his service.

Anyway, Wesley Fofana is a practising Muslim. He is also of mixed ethnicity – an Ivorian on his father’s side and a French on his mother’s side.
