Chelsea transfer report: Paris Saint-Germain make N'Golo Kante their number one summer target

Chelsea midfielder N'Golo Kante has emerged as ‘top priority’ target for Paris Saint-Germain ahead of the summer transfer window, according to reports in France.

PSG are looking to replace 35-year-old veteran midfielder Thiago Motta this summer.

Monaco's versatile Brazilian Fabinho is also on the Ligue 1 giants’ radar but, according to Canal+, France international Kante is their first choice replacement.

However, it is highly unlikely Chelsea will allow one of their most key players to leave Stamford Bridge.

Kante has quickly become a vital cog in Antonio Conte’s team since his arrival from Leicester City in 2016 for £30million.
