Todd Boehly told to cash in on N'Golo Kante as Chelsea dealt transfer verdict amid contract saga

Chelsea have been instructed to cash in on N'Golo Kante, with the midfielder set to leave the club at the end of the season. The 31-year-old sees his contract at Stamford Bridge expire in the summer, and with the France international yet to pen an extension, he faces an increasingly uncertain future.

Kante will be free to begin pre-contract talks with clubs outside of the Premier League in January in order to secure a move upon the end of his Blues deal in June. The west Londoners can extend his stay at Chelsea at any time, subject to Frenchman agreeing.

Should the Blues look to sanction Kante's exit, the club could either recuperate a small fee in January and relinquish his services for the remainder of the season or let him leave on a free transfer at the end of the season. So, with a verdict yet to be reached, Todd Boehly has been encouraged to cash in on the midfielder and secure a healthy windfall.
