It’s only a matter of hours or days before the official announcement. According to Italian journalist Fabrizio Romano, N’Golo Kanté, the French international, will sign with Al-Ittihad, a team from Saudi Arabia, which has already caused the buzz by recruiting Karim Benzema.
Last week, the 32-year-old announced he would be leaving Europe for Saudi Arabia. After seven years at Chelsea, including a last season marred by injuries, the native of Rueil-Malmaison (Hauts-de-Seine) is about to sign a contract of 100 million per year, until 2025.
For the former player of Caen, a departure for the Saudi desert is not necessarily synonymous with international retirement. Moreover, Didier Deschamps cautiously declared on this subject: “I have no unacceptable position. Today I will make sure to follow them (Editor’s note players leaving for Saudi Arabia). These are career choices at important times for players.
It remains to be seen whether N’Golo Kanté will go further than his current 53 selections. His last cape dates back more than a year with a League of Nations match at the Stade de France against Denmark (1-2 defeat) on June 3, 2022.
