I want to leave – Chelsea star set to sign for Barcelona in January

According to reports, Barcelona are interested in signing Chelsea midfielder N’Golo Kante in the summer of 2023.

Kante’s contract with Chelsea runs out in June 2023 and Spanish media outlet Sport claimed the Frenchman is close to agreeing a pre-contract deal with Barca once the January transfer window opens.

The 31-year-old has struggled for fitness since last season and has made just two appearances for the Blues so far this season.

It was also reported that the midfielder wants to extend his stay at Stamford Bridge but the Blues are not ready to offer a contract more than two years.

Meanwhile, former Chelsea star Frank Leboeuf has urged N’Golo Kante to consider retiring from due fitness issues.
