Chelsea midfielder N’Golo Kante is reportedly on the verge of making a final decision on his future and signing a new contract at Stamford Bridge.
Florian Plettenberg reports that N’Golo Kante is on the verge of extending his contract at Stamford Bridge.
It is added that Blues’ bosses want him to stay and talks with the players management are going well:

Kante joined the Blues in 2016 after his key role in Leicester City’s shocking title triumph.
Kante went on to cement a legacy as one of the best defensive midfielders in Europe, helping Chelsea win every single trophy available to them, including the Premier League and Champions League.
However, years of injuries have caught up with the Frenchman and he has made just two appearances in all competitions this season.
Whilst not reported, it is probably safe to assume that any new deal that goes through will be fairly short and have Kante on a lower wage.
