Chelsea star N'Golo Kante is hopeful of remaining at the club beyond the summer.

The French midfielder, who has missed chunks of the past two seasons with injuries, is out of contract.

The 32-year-old has still not agreed a renewal with Chelsea, and is being linked to Saudi Arabian clubs.

Per The Mail, the Saudi Pro League will make him a substantial offer to sign for a domestic club.

However, Kante prefers a stay in the Premier League and in England.

While he wants a contract that reflects his on pitch quality, Kante's first consideration in making a decision is not money.
