Chelsea transfer exit ‘now or never’ as N’Golo Kante faces repeat of Eden Hazard decision

Former Chelsea star Pat Nevin thinks N’Golo Kante has to make a decision on potentially following Eden Hazard’s example and leaving Chelsea “now or never.” The Sun reported earlier this month that Kante wants a move to Real Madrid. “I can understand why people are asking the question [should Chelsea sell Kante?],” Nevin told The Athletic. "Chelsea are pretty well-served in the midfield area. Kante is picking up more injuries now. “The money you can get now from selling him to one of the bigger clubs would be quite astronomical. I would argue he needs to stay from more of a football point of view — he is more than just a holding player now. “He breaks play up higher up the field and he is brilliant at it. But is that offset though from the financial side of things and how you can spend the money? If he stays for a few more years, his value is negligible in comparison. It must be a temptation for the club to sell because of the quality of players coming through. “From his point of view, if you’re going to make a move to a big club you are reaching that point of now or never. Chelsea lost Hazard last summer and, of course, they’ve missed him. But every team in the world moves on — Real Madrid had to move on after Cristiano Ronaldo left. “If Kante leaves, it will cause headlines, you would miss certain things. Would Chelsea survive? Of course. Do I think Chelsea would prosper more with him still around for a few more years? Yes. He would help the young players.” Source- Express Join us on Telegram!
