According to The Sun, N’Golo Kante is on Real Madrid’s list as they hunt a new defensive midfielder.
Real Madrid boss Zinedine Zidane reportedly wants to pair Kante with fellow French World Cup winner Paul Pogba, if Real beat Juventus in the hunt for the unsettled Manchester United ace.
Chelsea are reportedly open to selling Kante at the end of the current season should the club receive a reasonable offer for the World Cup winner.
Kante has struggled with injuries this season and the Chelsea hierarchy are reportedly considering the future of the midfield with the player now approaching his 30s.
The Blue reportedly want between £70.3m (€80m) and £79.1m (€90m) for Kante and Real Madrid might be willing to meet Chelsea’s valuation of the midfielder.
