He saw Benzema leave to Arabia, Premier League Frenchman to follow his footsteps

Karim Benzema is leaving for Arabian soccer almost officially. The French player said goodbye to his Real Madrid teammates in a moving presentation and press conference where he expressed his gratitude to the club and took a step aside to start a new chapter in his career.

In this way, the French player joins the list of players who are leaving Europe for Saudi Arabia to pursue another chapter of their careers as professionals. In this situation, a friend of Benzema's and former teammate in the France national team, could follow in his footsteps and leave his club in the Premier League.

It is precisely N'Golo Kanté, a player who is in the sights of Arab teams since his contract expires this June. Kanté, 32, has been a key player at Chelsea since his arrival in 2016, with his ability to retrieve balls and his tireless work in midfield. However, injuries have plagued him this season. However, the quality of the player who was world champion in 2018 remains intact and therefore, a strong bid from Arabia is close to convince the Frenchman.

Which teams in Arabia are looking for Kanté for the summer?

Saudi Arabian clubs Al Ittihad and Al Nassr are willing to make an effort to lure Kanté and offer him a new experience in his career. Saudi Arabian teams have shown in recent years their ambition to attract outstanding players, and the possibility of having a talent like Kanté is not alien to their plans.
