Celtic, who are still seeking a striker, are said to have made a last-minute loan approach for Fofana, which he declined.
The Bhoys could now turn their attention to Kelechi Iheanacho, who is available as a free agent after his contract with Sevilla was terminated.
However, they did manage to bolster their attacking options with the signing of Sebastian Tounekti.
The Tunisian winger joined on deadline day and has signed a five-year deal at Parkhead.
Celtic manager Brendan Rodgers told celticfc.com: "I’m really happy that Sebastian has joined the Club and I am sure he will be a really exciting addition to our squad.
"He will give us that real added attacking intent, and I am sure he can make a big difference to us."
