Reports suggest that despite being in pole position, the "Black and Yellows" will face fierce competition. Bayern Munich, Hoffenheim, RB Salzburg, and several Italian clubs are all showing strong interest in the 19-year-old prospect, viewing Kanté as the perfect addition to bolster their defensive lines.
It's worth noting that the player has only featured at youth level so far.
