Real Madrid will reportedly go head-to-head with Juventus for the signature of Chelsea midfielder N'Golo Kante in next summer's transfer window.
The France international helped Leicester City win the 2015-16 Premier League title before moving to Stamford Bridge on a five-year deal in the summer of 2016.
Kante, who is widely regarded as one of the best holding midfielders in world football, is believed to be a transfer target for Italian giants Juve.
However, according to Sport, Madrid are also interested in landing the 28-year-old with the capital giants determined to improve their midfield ahead of the 2020-21 campaign.
The report also claims that Manchester United's Paul Pogba remains an option for Zinedine Zidane's side, although the Red Devils could continue to price the Frenchman out of a move.
Kante, who has a contract with Frank Lampard's side until the summer of 2023, has scored once in five outings for the Blues at the start of the 2019-20 season.
