N’Golo Kante, the Chelsea midfielder, has reportedly agreed to transfer to Al-Ittihad in Saudi Arabia where he will join Karim Benzema. As per sources, the 32-year-old midfielder is set to earn a whopping salary of 100 million euros every season. In other news, Real Madrid has spent a hefty 133 million euros to acquire Bellingham from Dortmund. Additionally, an Iranian female football player was hospitalized in Phu Tho due to heat stroke, while the first opponent of the Vietnamese women’s team has announced their list for the 2023 Women’s World Cup.
N’Golo Kante is set to join Al-Ittihad in Saudi Arabia, becoming Karim Benzema’s teammate after the club successfully recruited the French striker. Several reputable sources in Europe have confirmed that Kante agreed to a two-year contract with Al-Ittihad, with a salary of 100 million euros per season, including image rights, commercial transactions, and investment portfolio. The contract also includes a one-year extension clause based on Kante’s performance. Despite struggling with injuries and only appearing in nine matches for Chelsea last season, Kante remains one of the most famous stars in the world, having won the World Cup with France in 2018 while playing in a defensive position. His salary with Al-Ittihad may be lower than Benzema’s and only half of what Cristiano Ronaldo earns in Saudi Arabia, but it is still a significant amount for a 32-year-old midfielder.
