The 26-year-old defender joined the French club in 2009, and went on to become one of the best central defenders in the league.
He has played 171 league matches and has scored nine goals for Nantes.
Chelsea have made a stuttering start to the 2015-16 Premier League campaign, having suffered two defeats already in their opening four matches.
