According to The Mirror, the Frenchman has been in talks with Chelsea over extending his stay at the club for several months with an offer put to him.

However, talks have stalled recently, opening the door for possible suitors for the World Cup winner.

Transfer guru Fabrizio Romano tweeted that Kante has been offered a mega-money deal by Saudi giants Al-Ittihad that will see him also keep hold of his image rights.

It has further been suggested that the midfielder will be given "commercial deals and a creative ‘investment portfolio’" in case he makes the switch.

Will Kante ditch his Mini Cooper?

Some fans now contend that Kante is likely to get rid of his famous Mini Cooper and buy himself an expensive set of wheels.

This is considering the huge amount of money involved in the deal tabled for him by Al-Ittihad.

@FerdyOmondi tweeted:

"Well, it's time he upgraded from the Mini Cooper tbh. He's earned it. Wish him well."

@the_marcoli_boy joked:

"Kante is going to take all this Saudi Money and will still be using his old Mini Cooper."

@YuriBaraza posed:

"What will humble N’Golo Kanté do with €200m? Probably take his old Mini Cooper for a paint job?"

Kante hints on Chelsea future

Earlier, Sports Brief reported N'Golo Kante has made a decision over his Chelsea future amid speculation he could depart Stamford Bridge at the end of the season.

Kante has been one of Chelsea's most influential figures since his arrival back in 2016 from Leicester City.

However, he was less impactful this season, with a long-term injury initially hampering his progress during the club's crisis.
