Paris Saint-Germain are still interested in prising N’Golo Kante back to France but are not desperate to get a deal over the line at the moment, claims ESPN.
Unai Emery’s side are determined to sign a long-term successor to Thiago Motta at the end of the season after failing in their attempts to sign Monaco’s Fabinho and Danilo Pereira of Porto in the summer.
PSG have a long-term interest in Kante, who was born in Paris, but it would likely require a huge fee to convince Chelsea to part ways with one of their best players.
The 26-year-old has established himself as one of the most influential players in the Premier League since moving to England in 2015, winning back-to-back league titles in his first two seasons.
In fact, since August 2015, no player has completed more tackles and interceptions combined than Kante (647).
