Chelsea star N’Golo Kante has officially extended his contract with Chelsea until 2023. The France international is now the highest paid player at the Stamford Bridge as he put pen to paper on a £290,000-a-week contract.
Kante refused to let Chelsea pay his image rights into an offshore account which would have helped him avoid tax.
However, his teammates David Luiz and William reveal Kante is not as perfect as everyone thinks he is.
The Brazilian duo co-own a restaurant, “Bobo”, in London’s Mayfair, and they jokingly claim that Kante is the one who most often asks for freebies.
“They [Chelsea players] love it because normally they come here and they don't want to pay. Especially N'Golo," Luiz told Chelsea TV, presumably to a shocked audience.
Willian then added: "If you ask N'Golo, 'pay', he does like that *gestures* 'Yeah? Do I have to pay? Oh no! You and David you're good, you have a good heart.'"
Luiz then concluded: "Even if I say it in front of them, he says 'I'm not gonna pay.'"
