Real Madrid have reportedly outlined their intentions to move for Chelsea midfielder N’Golo Kante, according to The Sun.
The European champions are expected to splash the cash in the mid-season to strengthen their squad following a dreadful run that has seen them losing four matches.
The report suggests that the France international is one of the players Los Blancos want to recruit, and they are likely to table a £80million offer to test Chelsea’s resolve in January transfer window.
Kante, 27, who has three years remaining on his current contract at Stamford Bridge, is understood to have already knocked back interest from the European elite clubs such as Juventus and Paris Saint-Germain.
