Transfer expert Fabrizio Romano has confirmed Chelsea midfielder N’Golo Kante has already completed his medicals and his move to Saudi club Al Ittihad is done and sealed.

Kante will earn a massive €100million per year in the Saudi league. He is joining the Saudi club on a two-year contract with the option of a third year.

Romano said: “Documents are being signed today for N’Golo Kanté to Al Ittihad as revealed last week — done and sealed soon.

“Kanté salary will be around €100m, first part of medical tests already completed.

“Here we go confirmed, end of an era at Chelsea.”

Chelsea are already on the lookout for a replacement. The Blues have already lost out in the race for Manuel Ugarte, but Mauricio Pochettino reportedly wants Moises Caicedo to replace Kante.
