Real Madrid are reportedly weighing up an £85m move for Chelsea midfielder N'Golo Kante.
The 28-year-old has made over 150 appearances for the Blues since arriving from Leicester City ahead of the 2016-17 campaign.
The France international only signed a new deal at Stamford Bridge in the latter stages of 2018 and is contracted to his London club until the summer of 2023.
There has been speculation surrounding the 2018 World Cup winner in recent months, though, and according to reports in Spain, Madrid are desperate to bring him to the Bernabeu.
Los Blancos boss Zinedine Zidane is allegedly a huge admirer of the midfielder, with the club said to be considering an £85m swoop in next summer's transfer window.
Kante played a key role in Leicester winning the 2015-16 Premier League title before moving to Chelsea, where has won the Premier League, FA Cup and Europa League.
Madrid also continue to be linked with a move for Manchester United midfielder Paul Pogba.
