As reported by The Telegraph, London is confident that an agreement will be reached in the near future. The French midfielder's current contract runs until the end of the 2022/23 season. However, apart from the talks, the good news for Chelsea manager Graham Potter is Kante's return to training after the hamstring injury the player suffered in August against Tottenham.

Barcelona and PSG are monitoring Kante's contract situation.
