After this season, several of the players currently in the setup could move on and some new ones will arrive. One of the more mentioned targets is Chelsea midfielder Kante. He is rumored to be a prime target for Zidane who seeks to beef up his midfield options, but the former Leicester City midfield anchor warns he is not interested in a move.

“I am at Chelsea, and I still have aims here. What is said elsewhere is not important. That is not important. I am at Chelsea, and I am focused on that.”

Chelsea cannot bring in replacements for Kante should he move with the FIFA transfer ban looming, so the 27-year old’s comments will be pleasing to the club’s top officials.
