Paris Saint-Germain enter race to land Chelsea star

Paris Saint-Germain have reportedly entered the hunt to sign Chelsea midfielder N'Golo Kante on a free transfer.

The Frenchman has been a key player for the Blues over the past six years, but he could leave for nothing at the end of the season.

Kante has been nursing a hamstring injury since early August and the Blues are now reluctant to renew his £290,000-a-week contract.

Hence, he could be released when his deal expires in June 2023 but the midfielder won't be short of offers from European clubs.

Juventus and Barcelona are already in talks with his agent and it appears Les Parisiens have now joined the pursuit of his services.

The French champions have been long-term admirers of the World Cup winner and could finally get the opportunity to sign him.

The 31-year-old has been struggling with injuries lately but he continues to remain one of the best holding midfielders in world football.

Kante was also linked with Manchester United last summer.
