To be honest, I was quite surprised when I saw Kante as part of the French squad at Euro 2024, and I thought he would just be a complementary player but apparently, Didier Deschamps entrusted the starter position to him. As if answering all doubts, Kante played quite impressively, as if he wasn't an old player who had previously been injured for quite a long time. So with what he showed at Euro 2024, it stands to reason that Atletico Madrid is interested in him, and I think there may be other European clubs who are also interested.
Even though N'Golo Kanté is no longer young and is already 33 years old, his quality in playing on the field has not decreased. He is still able to play very well so it is not surprising that there are still European clubs who want his services after seeing him appear in the French national team at Euro 2024.
And you are right that there are still other European clubs who want N'Golo Kanté's services apart from Atletico Madrid. and the club is West Ham.
I do agree that Kante is a great player and we are going to see him at Europe, or at least we should be expecting to see him there because he is a great player and he deserves to be there without a doubt. I am not saying that we are going to end up with that happening right away, because both he is getting paid a lot and European clubs who can pay him that much won't want him, and the teams that will want him can't get him that much money and also Saudi teams do not need money so selling him is a very difficult position for them.
I think this will happen only if Kante insists, and takes a pay cut to go to a team which would be something he would be insisting his club to go to Europe and force his way out. Still, he deserves it and I hope that this move finally happens, he deserves it because he went to Saudi league way too early. We have seen with euro 2024 this summer how great he is and he deserves to be at some great team without a doubt.
