According to Matt Law of the Daily Telegraph, Chelsea midfielder N'Golo Kante is unlikely to sign a new contract this summer.
The journalist, who has a good track record when it comes to the Blues, indicated on the London is Blue podcast that the Frenchman is unlikely to sign a contract extension:
"I don't think Kante will sign a new deal this summer." From his own personal perspective, I don't think that makes sense."
With Kante's current contract set to expire at the end of next season, it's unclear whether Chelsea will contemplate trading him in the coming weeks.
There have been contrasting rumors about the Blues' willingness to let the midfielder leave, with Manchester United rumored to be interested in making an offer.
Manager Thomas Tuchel, according to Law, wants Kante to stay, but the player's fitness record is the key concern. Tuchel would gladly keep him around for the foreseeable future if the team could find a method to keep him on the pitch for extended periods of time.
