N'Golo Kanté, imminent transfer

This is clearly becoming clearer for N’Golo Kanté. After his refusal to extend his contract with Al-Ittihad, where he is linked until June 30, 2026, the 34-year-old French international seems decided to leave Saudi Arabia this winter.

According to several sources, the 2018 world champion has already reached a contractual agreement with Fenerbahçe. The Turkish club is now in negotiations with Al-Ittihad with a view to finding common ground regarding the transfer fee.

Fenerbahçe made an offer to Al-Ittihad

This Thursday, the daily The Team reveals that the Istanbul team has made an offer of 4 million euros to Al-Ittihad to buy out the last six months of the French midfielder’s contract. We don’t know if it was accepted or not, but one thing is certain: the outcome is near.

As a reminder, Fenerbahçe completed the arrival of Mattéo Guendouzi at the start of the winter transfer window for 30 million euros. The former Marseillais could therefore soon be associated with N’Golo Kanté in the “Fener” midfield.
