# Kante confirms PSG approach

N’Golo Kante has revealed Paris Saint-Germain made contact with him over the summer.

The midfielder – who was an indispensable part of France’s World Cup winning team – has insisted he is happy at Chelsea, but revealed [in an interview with RMC Sport](https://rmcsport.bfmtv.com/football/n-golo-kante-dans-footissime-il-y-a-eu-quelques-contacts-avec-le-psg-1523742.html) that the French champions had been in touch with him.

Kante said:

> There was no urge to go elsewhere after the World Cup,

> There were other clubs interests but after talking to Chelsea, things were clear. The club is counting on me and I feel good. The next logical step was to continue to Chelsea.

> There were some contacts \[from PSG\]. But after a discussion with Chelsea I realised that the main thing was to feel good where I was. I am at Chelsea. It’s good for me to stay at Chelsea.

With his heart in the British capital, the Blues will supposedly seek to tie the box-to-box specialist to Stamford Bridge with a new five-year contract, [according to a report from Goal.](https://www.goal.com/en-gb/news/chelsea-star-kante-admits-psg-contact/84w3mz9un01h1sfb6czz2j7tt)

Star goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois has already flown the nest this summer, and Chelsea’s team would have been infinitely poorer had Kante followed suit.
