Barcelona join race for N'Golo Kante: He could be involved in a player+cash deal

Barcelona want to sign Chelsea star N'Golo Kante. The Catalan giants could use Philippe Coutinho to seal the deal. The La Liga champions need more power in their midfield. Ivan Rakitic and Arturo Vidal are set to leave the club in the summer. Sergio Busquets, 31, needs a replacement. Therefore, Barcelona turn their attention to 29-year-old Kante, according to Mundo Deportivo. Barcelona, on the other hand, want to sell 27-year-old Coutinho. The Brazilian is currently on loan at Bayern Munich. They are reportedly willing to involve Coutinho in a player-plus-cash deal for Kante. Nevertheless, Barcelona face competition for Kante from old rivals Real Madrid, Italian giants Juventus and French champions Paris Saint Germain. Source: The Sun
