Kante lost a lot of money when he left Saudi Arabia.

N'Golo Kante has accepted Fenerbahce's request for a pay cut in order to expedite the transfer this month.

N'Golo Kante joined Saudi Arabia in 2023.

According to France Football , Kante is excited about Fenerbahce's project and the long-term strategic vision of the club's management. He is ready to return to Europe to experience a new challenge. Negotiations between the two sides are almost complete, and only the official contract signing date remains.

The French midfielder even expressed to Fenerbahce that salary was not an obstacle in negotiations between the two parties. This decision shows Kante's determination to seek new opportunities at the Turkish club.

Kante currently earns €25 million per season before tax at Al Ittihad, a figure far beyond Fenerbahce's financial capabilities. However, the former Chelsea star is willing to take a pay cut of up to 70% from his current salary in Saudi Arabia to facilitate negotiations and reach a compromise.

Thus, Kane is willing to sacrifice no less than 16-17 million euros per season to move to Fenerbahce. Kante wants to return to Europe to play as soon as possible, in order to realize his goal of participating in the 2026 World Cup finals.

Fenerbahce highly values ​​the talent and experience of the former Chelsea star, believing he would be an ideal addition to strengthen the Turkish club for the remainder of the season.

Championship contenders eliminated at the U23 Asian Championship: On the evening of January 13th, Iran U23 suffered a shocking 0-1 defeat to Lebanon U23 and were officially eliminated in the group stage.
