Atletico Madrid 'interested' in signing Chelsea star this summer amid contract talks

Atletico Madrid are interested in signing Chelsea midfielder N’Golo Kante, if recent reports are to be believed.

Kante has endured an injury-ridden campaign at Stamford Bridge, failing to play since he suffered a hamstring issue against Tottenham Hotspur back in August of last year. During his time on the treatment table, the French international has been heavily linked with a move away from west London, with his contract set to expire at the end of the current campaign.

Now, Spanish outlet Mundo Deportivo have reported that Spanish side Atletico are keen on the prospect of signing the former Leicester City star this summer if he doesn't agree a new deal with the Blues. It is claimed that Diego Simeone's side have already reached out to the player's representatives to gauge whether he would be open to making the move to the Spanish capital.
