Real Madrid express N'Golo Kante interest

Real Madrid are heading the queue to sign reported Manchester United and Chelsea target N'Golo Kante. The Leicester City midfielder has expressed his desire to move on to a bigger club.

Kante was a key performer in the Foxes' setup as they went on to claim their first-ever league title last term.

According to Spanish source AS, Los Blancos have emerged as front-runners to land Kante's signature after they held talks with the player's entourage over a proposed deal.

The 25-year-old currently has a £20m release clause in his contract, and this is well within the range of Real, who are looking to add more depth to their midfield.

Kante made the most number of interceptions during the 2016/17 Premier League campaign.
