N'Golo Kante keen to stay at Chelsea despite Inter Milan interest

Chelsea midfielder N'Golo Kante is keen to continue his association with Chelsea, despite strong interest from former manager Antonio Conte who is currently at the helm of Inter Milan. The 29-year-old endured an injury-ravaged last season that saw him miss almost half of Chelsea's matches.

However, according to Goal, Kante is not pushing for a move away from Stamford Bridge, but the situation might change should the Serie A outfit tempt the Blues with a huge offer for the 29-year-old.

It has been reported that Chelsea would consider selling Kante for a fee in the region of £80 million.
