N’Golo Kante seems destined to leave Chelsea when his contract expires next summer and Juventus are reportedly keeping a close eye on the situation.
The 31-year-old Frenchman has been with the Blues since 2016 and was a core part of the squad over the last few years, but things have started to look difficult recently. Kante has only made two appearances this season, missing every game since August 14 due to a hamstring injury. With less than a year left on his contract, Chelsea seem willing to let the Frenchman leave.
As reported by Calciomercato.com, Juventus are interested in picking up Kante on a free transfer next summer, should he not pen a new contract with Chelsea. It wouldn’t be an easy deal, however, as a number of clubs around Europe are also keen on the 31-year-old.
Last season, Kante missed 16 matches across all competitions through injury and this campaign he’s already been absent for 14.
Would be nice to get him, but reports in England are saying barca want him
Conte`s favourite DM, guess who might be back in Turin? 😉
PhD Max will love it. But do not be surprised if he puts Kante straight into the backline. Venturing forward will also have consequences.
