Chelsea star N’Golo Kante wanted by Real Madrid in stunning £50million transfer following stellar performances this season
REAL MADRID are reportedly lining up a £50million move for Chelsea star N’Golo Kante.
The Spanish giants already want one Blues star in Eden Hazard, but French news outlet Le 10 Sport claims Kante is on their radar as well.

The tenacious midfielder has been tipped by many to win this season’s PFA Player of the Year award after putting Chelsea on the verge of their fifth Premier League title.
And it appears Kante’s form has caught the eye of Zinedine Zidane, who could be set for a squad reshuffle this summer.
Playmakers James Rodriguez and Isco are tipped to leave the Santiago Bernabeu, but the recent emerge of anchorman Casemiro may have encouraged Zidane to seek out more defensive-minded players for the centre of the park, allowing the front three to attack without fear.

Kante would certainly offer a perfect balance in midfield, with his long pass to Hazard in Chelsea’s 3-1 win over Bournemouth on Saturday proving he can also help out further up the pitch.
It’s believed Real are ready to offer £50m for Kante’s signature, £20m more than what the Blues paid Leicester last year.
