The £100m that Manchester united are prepared toi pay for the Frenchman is simply too much for Real Madrid which means Zidane is now likely to try to sign Kante.
Kante was one of the key figures in Leicester City's title-winning side. The 25-year-old missed just one of Leicester's 38 Premier League matches in the last campaign, scoring one goal and making four assists.
His outstanding form for Leicester led to a first international appearance back in March 2016 and the tenacious midfielder subsequently played for his country at Euro 2016.
Would Kante be a good signing for Real Madrid?
