Chelsea have completed the signing of N’Golo Kante from Premier League champions Leicester City on a five-year contract.
Leicester offered Kante a “substantially improved, long-term contract” earlier in the close season but, having accepted the player’s desire to leave the King Power Stadium, they have agreed to a club-record sale – reported to be in the region of £32million.
Kante was a largely unheralded signing from Caen last season but proved to be a star performer as Claudio Ranieri’s men completed a remarkable run to the title and won a place in the PFA Team of the Year.
