Zinedine Zidane stunned the entire footballing world on Monday after it was announced that he would be returning as manager of Real Madrid.
The 46-year-old Frenchman left Los Blancos at the end of last season after he helped his side lift an incredible three consecutive Champions League titles.
It would look like the new Madrid boss is wasting no time in laying the early foundation, mainly for how La Gazzetta dello Sport's Nicolò Schira has said that he wants Chelsea's N'Golo Kanté to be his first signing in his second stint in charge.
The 27-year-old World Cup-winning Frenchman has struggled under Blues boss Maurizio Sarri this season, specifically for how he has been shifted into more of an attacking role than a defensive one.
However, Madrid will have to crank open their war chest to sign Kanté, especially after the Premier League side were hit with a transfer ban last month.
That's not to mention that the former Leicester City star penned a new deal back in November, which keeps him at Stamford Bridge until 2023.
Zidane's return will also be another warning sign for Chelsea, especially when it comes to the future of Eden Hazard.
