Chelsea midfielder N'Golo Kante targeted by new Paris Saint-Germain boss Thomas Tuchel

New Paris Saint-Germain boss Thomas Tuchel is keen to bring Chelsea midfielder N'Golo Kante to the Stade de France this summer.

According to the Sun, his agent Karim Douis has met with Sporting Director of the French champions Antero Henrique. 

Kante, 27, won back-to-back Premier League titles with the Blues and former club Leicester City in 2016 and 2017.

He was voted the PFA Player of the Year in 2017 and continues to impress with his superhuman work rate and tackling ability. 

The Frenchman, who moved to Chelsea for £35million, will change agents in December so the deal must be concluded this summer if it is to happen.

Real Madrid are also believed to be interested in Kante, with Casemiro currently unopposed in that role at the Bernabeu. 

The Blues have no plans to sell their star midfielder, but with no Champions League football and manager Antonio Conte's uncertain future, Kante may be tempted by a move away.
