SportsChelsea could be given major Havertz boost through sale of £138k-a-week star – Opinion
Antonio Conte looks set to raid his former club Chelsea as he sets his sights on bringing N’Golo Kante to Italy.
According to Sport Medisaset (via Evening Standard), the ex-Blues boss is trying to convince the Inter Milan board to fund the Frenchman’s €8m (£7.2m) annual wages. The midfielder reportedly views his time at Stamford Bridge as coming to a close and could be exiting the club this summer.
Despite spending four years in west London and helping Chelsea to Premier League and FA Cup success, Kante looks set to part ways with the Blues. According to an earlier report from The Times, Frank Lampard is willing to let a number of players go in order to fund his lavish transfer shopping list. Chief on that list, of course, is top target Kai Havertz.
Kante’s current Transfermarkt value is £72m, so Inter must be willing to pay a fee in that region if they want to secure his signature. However, there are doubts that the Serie A side will be able to fund his high wages, which break down to about £138,000 per week.
If Inter Milan want to sign Kante, they must act fact as the France international is reportedly a long-time target of Real Madrid (via Daily Mail).
Offloading the 29-year-old will be bittersweet for Chelsea fans as they will lose an incredible talent who has been named PFA Player of the Year, but they could be one step closer to signing Havertz if Kante is sold.
Lampard has a clear vision with where he wants his side to go and he knows the business that he must do in order to get there. The sale of Kante will line the Blues’ pockets with the necessary funds to continue their exciting transition into what promises to be a thrilling 2020/21 season.
