“€100m bid for him” – Fabrizio Romano confirms clubs are set to make lucrative offer for Chelsea superstar
Chelsea star N’Golo Kante will reportedly hold talks with Saudi Arabian officials, who have come to London to present an official offer to the midfielder. Al Ittihad and Al Nassr are leading the chase for Kante, who will become a free agent at the end of this month.
As per Fabrizio Romano, Chelsea still have their contract offer on the table, and the Frenchman is leaning towards signing it. However, he now also has a massive offer from the Middle East.
Journalist Matte Moretto has added that Al Ittihad are leading the race and are in advanced talks with the Frenchman. They have the 32-year-old on top of their transfer list, with Karim Benzema alongside him.
The midfielder was in talks with Chelsea for over a year, but was adamant on getting a three-year deal. However, the offer from the Blues was for two years because of his recent injury issues.
He played just nine matches this term, and was out injured for the majority of the season.
