N’Golo Kanté certainly signed a monstrous contract in Saudi Arabia, but in his case it does not seem to have altered either his level or his motivation to stay at the top of football.

The surprise of Didier Deschamps’ chef, N’Golo Kanté returned to the French team at Euro 2024 and if doubts surrounded him when his selection was announced, the French midfielder quickly dispelled them. Always as generous in his efforts and valuable in midfield, his distant exile in Saudi Arabia, which he joined this summer, is nothing like a golden retirement for him.

Wherever he goes, N’Golo Kanté remains valuable to the Blues

Sportingly he shows it with the Blues, financially it is clear that the argument of the salary weighed for him to leave the Premier League and Chelsea at the end of his contract for the Saudi Pro League and his club Al-Ittihad. N’Golo Kanté initialed a contract until 2027, which is paid the equivalent of 25 million euros per year. And in his case, it is net after taxes which earns him translated into gross, to be the highest paid player of the French team at the Euro in Germany.

A contract worth more than 68,493 euros daily with Al-Ittihad

The 33-year-old player is approaching a daily income of 68,493 euros, he signed with Al-Ittihad, a year ago and a little more now this Sunday, June 30, he has therefore earned since his departure for Saudi Arabia the equivalent of 25,616,438 euros net. This is without the additional income, notably from his sponsors such as Adidas who provide him with the textiles and cleats on the green rectangle.
