Leicester City have reportedly accepted a £29m bid from Chelsea for French man, N’Golo Kante.
According to French newspaper Le Parisien, Chelsea have agreed a £29.1m (35m euros) fee, which is higher than his originally reported £20m release clause.
The report says the 25-year-old will get a five-year-deal with the Blues and is set to become Antonio Conte’s second signing, following the arrival of Michy Batshuayi.
The France midfielder starred for the Foxes as they won the Premier League title last season.
Chelsea have also been linked with Napoli defender Kalidou Koulibaly, but it is reported that Napoli will accept nothing less than £50m for the highly-rated defender.
Chelsea officials are also believed to have assured Thibaut Courtois that he is still their first-choice goalkeeper, and Arda Turan’s agent has said rumours that he will be leaving Barcelona are “false”.
