Chelsea star poised to sign new deal and become one of the best paid players in England

N’Golo Kante is set to commit his future to Chelsea, despite links with Paris Saint-Germain. According to L’Equipe, the Blues have made a move which will put an end to any speculation of a potential exit. Following his arrival Kante helped the Blues to regain their status as the best team in England during his first season. His performances for France at this summer's World Cup didn't go unnoticed either. According to L’Equipe - via Sport Witness - talks over renewing Kante's contract have started and it's claimed the discussions should 'end in the coming weeks’, that will result in the Frenchman staying at Stamford Bridge and receiving ‘one of the biggest wages in the Premier League’. A couple of months ago the Times claimed the new deal would worth around £290,000 a week, which would make him the club’s best-paid player - ahead of Eden Hazard.
