Real Madrid to sign Juventus target N’Golo Kante

Juventus reportedly face fresh competition from Real Madrid for the signature of Chelsea midfielder N’Golo Kante in the summer transfer window.

The Frenchman joined the Blues from Leicester City on a five-year deal in the summer of 2016.

The 28-year-old, who is widely regarded as one of the best midfielders in world football, is believed to be a transfer target for Serie A champions Juventus.

However, according to Sport, Real Madrid are also interested in signing the France international with the La Liga giants determined to bolster their midfield ahead of the 2020-21 campaign.

The report goes on to claim that Manchester United’s Paul Pogba remains an option for Los Blancos, although the Red Devils could continue to price the playmaker out of a move.

Kante’s contract with Chelsea is valid until the summer of 2023.
