West Ham has been linked with Kante, who plays for Al-Ittihad in the Saudi Pro League after having featured for Chelsea for seven seasons.

Ex-Chelsea player Frank Leboeuf was shocked by West Ham’s interest in Kante and wants Chelsea to bring him back. Leboeuf says that Kante has shown that he is still capable of performing at the international level based on his displays during the Euros.

When I read the article, I said, what? Why don’t Chelsea call him back? The guy is from Chelsea,” Frank Leboeuf told ESPN as quoted by Metro.

Frank Leboeuf expressed disappointment at the decision made by Chelsea to release Kante, arguing that it was shameful given his performances in Euro 2024. ”

Chelsea as a football club is just not working and we are becoming a mockery for other clubs,” he said, bluntly pointing at the need to start delivering rather than making long-term promises.

While West Ham is keen on Kante, Chelsea receives criticism from ex-players and supporters urging the club to change its stance and resign the key midfielder.

The prospect of Kante’s return to the premier league, either with West Ham or with Chelsea is one of the big events of the summer transfer window.
