N'Golo Kante: Chelsea midfielder agrees to join Saudi champions Al-Ittihad

Chelsea and France midfielder N'Golo Kante has agreed to sign for Saudi Arabian champions Al-Ittihad.

The 32-year-old's contract at Stamford Bridge expires at the end of June.

Kante has struggled with injuries and made nine appearances for Chelsea during the 2022-23 campaign.

He will join Karim Benzema at Al-Ittihad after his fellow Frenchman left Real Madrid and agreed a three-year deal with them this month.
