Ngolo Kante leaving Leicester could create the chance for Daniel Amartey

Published on: 16 July 2016

Ghana international Daniel Amartey could get more playing time at EPL side Leicester City following the imminent departure of French star Ngolo Kante. Chelsea have agreed a fee of around £32m for Leicester City midfielder N'Golo Kante.

Leicester offered Kante an improved four-year contract before Euro 2016, but the France international has now told the club he wants to move to Stamford Bridge.

It is thought the midfielder will have a medical over the weekend, before meeting up with Chelsea on their pre-season training camp in Austria, where he will discuss personal terms.

What this means is Amartey who joined Leicester from FC Compenhagen last season could be drafted into midfield as a direct replacement for Kante.
