N'Golo Kanté may join Benzema at Al-Ittihad

N'Golo Kanté could be next in line to join the Saudi Arabian league with news linking the Chelsea man with a move away from Stamford Bridge.

According to various reports, Kanté could be set to join Karim Benzema at champions Al-Ittihad with the Real Madrid man’s transfer to the club all but confirmed. Lionel Messi has also been linked with a move to Saudi Arabia that could see him duel with Cristiano Ronaldo once again.

Chelsea are set for another rebuild this summer with Mauricio Pochettino at the helm and reports of a move for defensive midfielders, including Manuel Ugarte and Moisés Caicedo, could see the end of Kanté’s time at the club.

If the 32-year-old does move on he can look back at a hugely successful time at the club which has seen him win the Premier League, FA Cup, Champions League, Europa League, and Club World Cup with the Blues.
