Juventus remain keen on signing N’Golo Kante, according to reports in Italy, but the midfielder’s future at Chelsea reportedly depends on whether or not Maurizio Sarri remains as the club’s boss next season.
La Stampa, as cited by Calciomercato, claims that the France international could seek an exit from Stamford Bridge if the Blues opt against dismissing the former Napoli boss.
Sarri has led Chelsea to third place with one Premier League remaining, and they have the upper hand heading into their Europa League semi-final second-leg fixture against Eintracht Frankfurt at home.
Kante has been deployed in a more advanced role this season, with summer signing Jorginho dropping into a deeper position to suit the Blues boss’ style.
Speculation surrounding the former Leicester City star’s future in West London has been gathering in recent times, and La Stampa reports that Juventus remain interested in attempting to lure him to Turin.
Kante will miss the remaining fixtures of Chelsea’s campaign, however, following his injury in the 3-0 win against Watford on Sunday.
