Chelsea are ready to treble the wages of Leicester City midfielder N'Golo Kante in order to convince him to move to Stamford Bridge this summer.
Also French champions Paris Saint Germain are keen on luring the energetic midfielder back to Ligue 1, though new Chelsea boss Antonio Conte is ready to offer the Foxes star a five-year deal to remodel his midfield.
Kante arrived at Leicester only last summer, but played a crucial role in helping the club to their first ever Premier League title.
The player has a £20m release clause in his contract, and Leicester have all but admitted defeat in their hopes to retain the player ahead of the new campaign with heavy interest from some of Europe's top clubs. The Blues are ready to offer Kante more than three times his current £35,000-a-week wages to join them.
Leicester are already lining up 23-year-old Nice midfielder Nampalys Mendy as Kante's replacement, but Chelsea are also looking to team the Frenchman up with Roma midfielder Radja Nainggolan.
