Chelsea have no plans to let go of star man Kante this summer.

The Frenchman’s happiness at Stamford Bridge appears to be up for debate having been deployed in a different role by Maurizio Sarri this season.

The World Cup winner has been used in a more attacking role, on the right of the Blues’ midfield three, with playmaker Jorginho replacing him in the defensive role.

But despite moving him out of his favoured role for a year, Chelsea clearly have no plans to sell him.

Eden Hazard is expected to make the move from west London to the Bernabeu in the near future.

The Belgian has excelled for the Blues this season.

But his desire to move to the Spanish capital appears to outweigh Blues bosses wishes to keep him.

And Stamford Bridge bigwigs are desperate not to let the same thing happen to N’Golo Kante.

According to Spanish outlet OKDIARIO, Chelsea have told Real they will have to fork out a whopping £129m for the player’s signature.

Blancos boss Zinedine Zidane is thought to be desperate to bring Manchester United ace Paul Pogba in this summer to shore up his midfield.

But the Bernabeu legend also knows that he could do with bringing in a quality anchorman, with Casemiro the only defensive midfielder currently on their books.

However, Real have a back up should they be unable to find the cash to splash on Kante.

That man is Tanguy Ndombele.

The 22-year-old Lyon star is a wanted man amongst Europe’s elite, having impressed for Les Gones this season.

Real see the France international as a budget-option to bolster their midfield, with Ndombele likely to cost significantly less than Kante.

Their plight will no doubt be helped by the close relationship of the club presidents - Florentino Perez and Jean-Michel Aulas.

A seasoned administrator and chartered accountant, Francis Oluwagbenro Meshioye, the Olori Oluwo (Supreme Leader) of the Reformed Ogboni Fraternity has said being a member does not stop members from practising religions of their choice. In an interview with the Nigerian Tribune, he explained the fraternity takes its roots from Nigerian culture. On the negative perception of the group and what attracted him, Meshioye said: “I wanted to understand my culture, to know why I am here. Why was I not born in India as a Hindu or in China to embrace their culture and religion? This made me to begin to look within myself to know who I am and I extended this to what I have within my area. I am a firm believer in the Yoruba saying, ‘Animo ni peregun laso’ meaning you add to whatever you have.

Air Peace De-board Passenger For Asking Attendant To Translate Safety Instructions To Igbo Because 'He Does Not Speak English'

Iwarah declared that his de-boarding was necessary in a bid to guarantee the safety of its crew and customers and said it would not tolerate an act that would jeopardise safety on any of its flights. A passenger with Air Peace was today de-boarded by the airline over claims that he could not communicate in English during safety briefing. The passenger identified as Mr. Christopher Aniagboso told the cabin crew to translate the safety briefing for passengers in the over-wing exit seats in Igbo language and not English as is the standard. The airline in a statement by its spokesman, Mr. Chris Iwarah, said that other passengers around him offered to translate what was being said in English to him, but he insisted that the crew must brief him in Igbo language. Besides, Iwarah said that efforts to relocate the unruly passenger from his seat to the other proved abortive despite the intervention of the cockpit crew. He, however, said that the passenger who had earlier on May
