Barcelona 'in contact' with N'Golo Kante over summer move

Barcelona are described as "maintaining contact" with N'Golo Kante as they weigh up signing a senior midfielder to boost numbers before the transfer window closes, Report informs via One Football.

Kante left Europe last summer when his Chelsea expired, opting to join Al Ittihad in the Saudi Pro League after an injury-plagued final couple of seasons in London.

The 33-year-old recovered his fitness in Saudi Arabia and then somewhat unexpectedly played a major role for France at Euro 2024, having not played international football for two years.

Barcelona were linked with Kante before he joined Al Ittihad and SPORT now reports that a fresh approach could be made. The Catalans are said to be in touch with the Frenchman's camp, potentially able to take advantage of an apparent desire to leave Saudi Arabia.

Kante is believed to be of particular interest to Barca sporting director Deco, although a left winger has been the priority all summer – the club is seemingly refusing to give up on Nico Williams.
