According to Spanish media outlet Sport, Barcelona is considering signing 33-year-old French midfielder N’Golo Kante on loan.
Kante left Chelsea in the summer of 2023 and currently plays for Al-Ittihad in the Saudi Pro League. In this European Championship, Kante was surprisingly recalled to the French national team and showed excellent form in the matches he played for France, even being named MVP in two consecutive games.
Now, according to Sport, while strengthening their attacking line, Barcelona also hopes to bring in a defensive midfielder with strong running ability this summer, and Kante has become one of their target candidates.
It is understood that for the past two and a half years, Barcelona has been interested in bringing Kante to the team, but for various reasons, the transfer has never entered the substantive stage. Now, Kante’s excellent performance in the European Championship has reignited Barcelona’s interest in him.
At present, Barcelona’s idea is to bring Kante to the team on loan. However, Al-Ittihad is likely unwilling to let Kante go so easily, having previously rejected a transfer offer from West Ham.
