Lampard’s Kante stance amid Real Madrid links

Blues boss Frank Lampard has declared his intention to keep midfielder N’Golo Kante at Stamford Bridge amid interest from Real Madrid.

The midfielder who joined the club from Leicester in 2016 has been subject to speculation over his future with the Spanish giants circling.

Frenchman Kante has suffered from injury problems this campaign, and while providing an update on the player’s fitness, Lampard was categorical in expressing his desire to keep him.

“We need N’Golo Kante in our team, one of the best players in the world,” Lampard told the club website. “I knew that before becoming the manager of Chelsea, I know that from working with him.

“We, unfortunately, haven’t been able to have him much this year, but going forward we want him fit and ready to go.”

Coutinho urges to snub Chelsea move

Unsettled Barcelona midfielder Phillips Coutinho has been told to stay at Bayern Munich on-loan rather than move to Chelsea.

That’s the view of fellow Brazilian Thiago, also at Bayern.

Coutinho 27, has struggled since his £142 million switches from Liverpool in 2018, with the Nou Camp club sending him on loan to the German champions this campaign.
