Kante has turned down Chelsea’s offer to extend his contract and is likely to leave Stamford Bridge next summer.
According to the British press, midfielder N’golo Kante has refused to sign a new contract with Chelsea because the French player’s side found many inappropriate terms. This is really news that makes Chelsea’s BLD unable to be happy because for many years, Kante has played the role of ‘heart’ in Chelsea’s midfield.
This season is the last season in the contract between N’golo Kante and Chelsea. In the past time, the two sides have had contacts to come to an agreement on the extension. However, due to conflicts, this deal could not go anywhere.
According to journalist David Ornstein, The Blues gave Kante a two-year contract with a one-year extension option. But the 2018 World Cup winner wants a longer contract. So what is the reason why Kante has not decided to stick with the Stamford Bridge team?
The passing of Thomas Tuchel
When full, N’golo Kante is the real monster in Chelsea’s midfield. Like many previous coaches, Tuchel is fortunate to work with Kante. Together, Kante has improved a lot under the kneading hand of the German strategist, and Tuchel also has the glory of having Kante in the squad.
But now, when Tuchel is suddenly sacked, Kante feels distrustful and frustrated with the Chelsea leadership about how to treat the person who has raised him.
Kante feels no longer useful
Kante is appreciated for its toughness and impact. Fighting for many years in a harsh arena like the Premier League with a small body can also be considered an extraordinary feat. When healthy, Kante is an indispensable link to the efficiency of his play.
However, this style of play makes Kante need a lot of strength and in fact, in recent seasons Kante has started to get more injured. Kante is not a superman with eternal motivation and at the age of 31, it is difficult for Kante to maintain high form for long. It is this that makes BLD Chelsea hesitate with a long-term contract for Kante.
With his professionalism, perhaps Kante feels that Chelsea is trying to rejuvenate the squad with its declining health, and having to work with a new captain will make Kante’s playing opportunities less. go see.
Invitation from Liverpool
According to The Athletic, Liverpool are interested in Kante in the context of The Kop’s midfield is seriously lacking. James Milner or Henderson lost their form because of age, Thiago or injury and Harvey Elliot was too young. Despite the addition of Arthur, the Brazilian player is not good enough.
Furthermore, Kante was used to pressing at Chelsea under Tuchel and Klopp’s integration with Liverpool was only a matter of time. At Liverpool, Kante still has a chance to win the title because Liverpool is a team capable of competing in the Premier League as well as the Champions League.
The future of the French star will be a topic of discussion in the near future. If Kante is lost, it is really a big loss for Chelsea because finding a replacement is an extremely difficult task.
