“Wasting money on him, “He can’t play a proper game”, “It’s time for him to go” – Emmanuel Petit tells Chelsea to sell struggling Chelsea star in 2023
Emmanuel Petit, a former France midfielder, suggested that Chelsea might sell N’Golo Kante next summer. Kante has had a distinguished career for both club and country, but recent injuries have been a problem.
This season, the World Cup-winning French midfielder has only played 175 minutes of football due to recurring knee and muscular injuries.
The absence of the former Leicester City star has been a glaring problem for the Blues this year. Kante has already started the last year of his contract at Stamford Bridge, and in January he will be able to begin pre-contract talks with international clubs.
However, Despite Kante’s years of excellent service to Chelsea, according to Emmanuel Petit, the Blues may decide to break ways with him in the summer of 2019. To Getting Casino, he said:
“Kante has been tremendous for years and years. He’s been running around the world all the time but I can understand Chelsea’s position. How can they pay so much money for someone who is always injured? He cannot play a proper game.”
Petit has also claimed that Kante could prove to be a great bargain on a free transfer and there should be plenty of interest in the Frenchman. He added:
“I heard he’s back from training and will be fit soon, but I understand Chelsea’s position. He’ll be a great bargain if he doesn’t sign a contract as he’ll be available for free and some clubs will be interested to get him for sure.”
