Chelsea have opened contract talks with midfielder N'Golo Kante through his agent, a report from Tuttomercatoweb claims.
The Frenchman has been with the Blues for the past six years. He has been a key figure at the heart of their midfield.
Kante's current deal expires in the summer of 2023, but he has repeatedly said that he is happy with the London giants.
According to Tuttomercatoweb, the Blues have now opened talks with his representatives over a new long-term deal.
The club have the policy of handing one-year extensions for players above 30, but there could be an exception for Kante.
The 30-year-old has struggled with minor injuries over the past few years, but he continues to remain an integral figure.
The Blues are mulling over a new holding midfielder, but there are still reluctant to consider any offers for Kante.
Jorginho could be the most likely candidate to leave the club this summer. He has been linked with a return to Napoli.
