Kante admits he rejected PSG
N’Golo Kante admits that he turned down the opportunity to join Paris Saint-Germain at a time when Thomas Tuchel was still the coach of the French club, with whom he wants to succeed now at Chelsea.
Kante has twice won the Premier League title and is one of the best defensive midfielders in football today.
PSG had made efforts to ensure his quality services when the German coach was in charge of the team.
Asked by Chelsea’s official website about Tuchel’s interest in him in the past, Kante said: “I know we had contacts with Paris Saint-Germain in the past when he was their coach, but it was not something I liked. ”
The World Cup winner added: “I did not go there because I was happy at Chelsea and I stayed here. I have not talked to Tuchel about this.”
