According to transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, Chelsea midfielder N’Golo Kante looks set to leave the club at the end of the season despite his desire to remain at Stamford Bridge.

Kante’s Chelsea contract expires at the end of the season and the World Cup winner is yet to reach an agreement with Chelsea over a new contract.

Romano wrote: “Chelsea have still no agreement with N’Golo Kante on new contract — huge chances for French midfielders to leave as free agent in 2023.

“Kante would love to stay, but no deal in place yet — Chelsea are already looking at young midfielders.”
