Fans told Chelsea are in talks with World class world cup winner
Transfer guru Fabrizio Romano has Tweeted that Chelsea are locked in talks with Ngolo Kante about a new deal at the club
Kante is one of the best holding midfielders in the game and a player that everyone at the club can rely on – especially in those big games when the back-line needs to be protected more
But he is out of contract in the summer of 2023 and there has been some rumours in the media that PSG will be ready to swoop in and offer him a move back to his homeland, a place that he has a desire to play again in the future
However, Tuchel wants to avoid a similar situation to that of Andreas Christensen and Antonio Rudiger – who are now leaving the club at the end of this season for nothing, and wants the club to hand Kante a new deal when they can
Romano claimed on his Twitter that Chelsea are still in talks to keep hold of Kante going into the summer transfer window
Tuchel recently admitted that he would like the club to hand Kante a new contract – He said: ‘Nobody wants that [contracts running out], absolutely. With important players, it’s a wish as a coach that we solve this in the summer any way.
‘That it’s clear where the journey is, what the decision is. Otherwise, we have the same talks about Antonio and Andreas, we just swap the names, we talk about it through winter.
‘Then comes January, the agents talk with clubs and the brother to the other — it would be nice if we can avoid it. But at the moment, it’s a bit difficult. Yes, this should be the target for all of us.’

Look, there will probably be some big players arriving in the summer as the new owners will want to put their stamp on the squad, but they need to make sure that they do not lose Kante
There is no player that can do what he does in that side, and losing him, especially on a possible free deal would be a massive mistake from the club and one that we are hoping does not happen
