Real Madrid have joined the race to sign Leicester City midfielder N'Golo Kante, Marca has revealed.
According to the article, manager Zinedine Zidane has been following the progress of the France international since the end of last year.
He is a confirmed target for Arsenal with manager Arsene Wenger full of praise for the 25-year-old at the end of last week.
"It is very difficult to talk about that at the moment," Wenger told beIN SPORTS.
"Kante is on the list of many clubs. It is an area where we have many players.
"We will see what happens in the next two or three weeks. It looks like Leicester have bought a player from Nice [Nampalys Mendy] with similar qualities to Kante, so whether they envisage to lose him or not I don't know.
"If you ask 100 people in the street if they want Kante to play [for France] you will get 100 saying yes. He has done the job in one or two games and I am not surprised.
"I said two months ago this boy will play the whole European Championship. We know him well from Leicester now and I am not surprised that he is starting. He has been one of the revelations of the French team."
