Chelsea announced the signing of Leicester City’s all-action defensive midfielder N’Golo Kante on a five-year deal to become new boss Antonio Conte’s second capture of the summer.
The fee for the French international was about £32 million (38 million euros, $42 million), Daily mail said, and comes after Chelsea snapped up Belgian striker Michy Batshuayi from Marseille for a similar fee.
Kante comes to Chelsea with a premier league winners’ medal and eight international caps to his name.
