Maurizio Sarri Reportedly Wants Chelsea's N'Golo Kante at Juventus

Juventus manager Maurizio Sarri reportedly wants to sign Chelsea midfielder N'Golo Kante.

According to MailOnline's Alvise Cagnazzo, the Italian was "deeply impressed" with the Frenchman during his time as Blues boss last season and believes a midfield trio of him, Aaron Ramsey and Miralem Pjanic "would be the best in Europe."

Juventus are said to believe that a bid of around £70 million would be enough to prise him away from Stamford Bridge.

Sarri's use of Kante in a more advanced role than he played under Antonio Conte at Chelsea was controversial, but as football writer Daniel Storey noted earlier in the season, Frank Lampard has followed suit:

Quite amusing that supposedly playing N'Golo Kante out of position was seen as one of Maurizio Sarri's biggest gaffes, and yet Frank Lampard is doing the same.
