Real Madrid emerge surprise leading candidates to sign indispensable Chelsea star this summer

In Chelsea’s squad, it’s perhaps an appropriate claim that very few will walk into the current Real Madrid setup including Eden Hazard, who has been the Blues best player by far in recent seasons, but there’s a new addition to that list and it’s N’Golo Kante.

The France international has been one of the most talked about players in the last couple of summer transfer windows, despite pledging his loyalty to the course at Stamford Bridge.

According to Le Parisien in France via Calciomercato, Paris Saint Germain will need to begin looking over their shoulders as Real Madrid leapfrog them in the race to sign Kante this summer. The central midfielder is considered one of the hottest properties in Europe at the moment and Chelsea are unwilling to let him go.

He helped the Blues win the Premier League in his maiden season at the club and last season, despite the Blues failings, Kante earned himself the plaudits of being named the best player at the club.

Juventus are also rumored to be interested as Massimiliano Allegri is thought to be interested in bringing the player to Turin.
