Real Madrid plot surprise move for former Chelsea star
Real Madrid are reportedly considering a move for former Chelsea superstar N’Golo Kante amid uncertainty over Aurelien Tchouameni's future. As claimed by Real Madrid Confidencial (via Madrid Universal), Los Blancos want the experienced midfielder to replace Tchouameni if the latter leaves.
Tchouameni established himself as a key player for Los Blancos following his reported €100 million switch from AS Monaco in 2022. However, his stock has somewhat fallen this season, with the Frenchman not being at his absolute best.
The 24-year-old has been heavily linked with an exit from the Santiago Bernabeu next summer and Real Madrid reportedly want Tchouameni's compatriot N’Golo Kante as his replacement.
Los Blancos are understood to be hugely keen on Kante because of his immense experience at the highest level. The veteran French midfielder is currently on the books of Saudi Arabian side Al-Ittihad and is understood to be keen on returning to Europe.
