Real Madrid are preparing a bid for Chelsea midfielder N'Golo Kante.

AS says Real have set their sights on a £71million swoop for Kante.

Blues boss Frank Lampard does not see the Frenchman as part of his Stamford Bridge revolution.

So Zinedine Zidane can steal in and grab his countryman as he looks to shore up his midfield at the Bernabeu.

There has been speculation that Kante could leave the Blues for some time now and this would give Lamps the cash to complete his other business.

Lampard has plenty of options in midfield with Jorginho, the impressive Mateo Kovacic, new hope Billy Gilmour, Mason Mount and Ruben Loftus-Cheek.
