According to the Daily Mail, Chelsea could be on the verge of signing the France international for as little as £30 million.
However, Leicester are currently battling to keep hold on their superstars but as per the reports – it could be a big boost for the former champions.

If Chelsea sign Kante for £30 million that will be a steal. Without European football Chelsea will be a force again next season #CFC

Kante must have been a Chelsea fan from birth. Why else would you take such a huge step backwards in the prime of your career?

Kante, I have your Leicester City jersey. i was so naive to think that you would not leave. Damn it. Chelsea have gained a star if true.
