Barcelona are eyeing Chelsea's Bosman pair Jorginho AND N'Golo Kante.

The London Evening Standard says the midfield pair are both out of contract at the end of the season and will be free to talk to interested foreign clubs from January.

Chelsea are open to renewing the contracts of both players but want to sign Kante on reduced terms from his £290,000-a-week deal due to his fitness struggles.

Only a short-term contract is currently on the table for the France international, who has suffered a setback in his return from his latest injury.

The 31-year-old has also long had interest from Paris Saint-Germain but would prefer to remain at Chelsea, though he is open to a move to Spain to play for either Barcelona or Real Madrid.

Similarly, Jorginho is open to staying at Chelsea but will likely see clubs in Italy join Barcelona in the race for his signature.

Barca signed Chelsea duo Andreas Christensen and Marcos Alonso this summer, also chasing Blues skipper Cesar Azpilicueta, who ended up penning fresh terms in west London.
