N'Golo Kante

[Chelseabluerising 60]

Hope we buy him, if we do him and Fab would work well together I think 

[Chelsea Buzz 487]

I am a little more skeptical at the moment of the reports of this signing, BUT if we can get Kante and the others we are in it with, this could be a nice summer transfer window for us. Kante would be very nice addition. Really impressed last year.

Conte is also hoping to secure the signature of midfielder N’Golo Kante from Leicester (Telegraph) #CFC #LCFC

Conte wants to partner Kante with Fabregas in his midfield two and then have Hazard & Willian either side of his front two (Telegraph) #CFC

Chelsea will activate Kante's £20m release clause early next week, almost immediately after the arrival of Conte (Telegraph) #CFC #LCFC

Please be true!

While we're at it, I hear Matuidi may move from PSG. Let's get ourselves a nice French duo next week!

Stick him and Matuidi in the shopping basket and click "Buy now"

I don't like how they've functioned together actually.

If we get Kante....

 

 

Not only is 20m a steal but it will give us the freedom to bid higher on some other potential targets.

From these latest rumours:

                                    Courtois/Bego (Lopez?)
         ?/Ivanovic-Koulibaly/Terry-Cahill/Zouma (Until Recover)-Azpi/ (Baba?)
        Willian/Pedro-Fabregas/(Rlc?)-Kante/Matic-Hazard/(Kenedy?)
                                Bats/Traoré-Diego/Pellé

Guess if we get Morata one of Kenedy/Traoré will have no space whatsoever, hopefully it will be Kenedy because I think Traoré can become the superior player. Not too sure about that midfield either, I hope Conte will realize soon enough how useless is Fabregas, and we desprately need a new FB.

If Kenedy makes it here i hope will be as a left back, he just simply doesn't have the close control or intelligence to be a winger.

If that is the route he does go down long term, give it a few years and the average Chelsea fan will be every bit as sick of him as they are currently are Oscar (I say a few years because the he's young give him time brigade will cling on till he's 24/25).

I think it's either him or Baba, both are not good enough to be nailed on starters and we can't have both in our lineup, only one slot as back up lb; we need that defensively solid/good while attacking FB to be the starter together with Azpi.
Me personally? I wouldn't mind seeing Baba's back.

Why would we wait until next week to trigger it. If Conte wants him, trigger the fucker now

Correct. This is why I always wonder about these stories. We've decided he's our man so we'll just give all the other sides a chance to sneak in and have a bid, about a week should do...

Him + Bazoer from Ajax would be dream midfield ...
