Chelsea are willing to allow new sporting director Christopher Vivell to make a final decision on N'Golo Kante.

The France midfielder's deal is running down this season and talks over a new contract have stalled over the length of the agreement.

PSG are watching developments closely, where transfers chief Luis Campos is a fan.

Italian transfer expert Fabrizio Romano is reporting Chelsea's owners are willing to hand over the final decision to Vivell.

Vivell is set to be named new sporting director of Chelsea after his sudden departure from RB Leipzig last week.
