Shanghai ready big money move for Premier League title winner

 

Chinese Super League side Shanghai SIPG are readying a £35m move for Leicester City star N’Golo Kante, reports the Mirror. 

 

The France star has been attracting interest from a host of teams across the continent, with Real Madrid, PSG and Arsenal all keen on the midfielder. 

 

While the trio, among others, can offer Kante Champions League football next season, Shanghai SIPG, who are managed by former England boss Sven Goran Eriksson, are hoping their financial power can convince the midfielder to move to China. 

 

The Foxes have stood firm in their bid to retain the services of star striker Jamie Vardy and are hoping the striker’s decision to stay at the King Power Stadium will convince Kante and Riyad Mahrez to stay in Leicester.
