Drama Ends: N'Golo Kante Transfers from Al-Ittihad to Fenerbahce

N'Golo Kante's team transfer, which previously faced complications, has been finalized. The French national midfielder will move from Al-Ittihad in the Saudi Arabian league to Fenerbahce in the Turkish league. Originally, Kante was set to transfer to Fenerbahce on February 2nd, the last day of the winter transfer window, while Youssef En-Nesyri from Morocco would move to Al-Ittihad. However, drama arose when it was revealed that Kante could not transfer due to document submission issues. Recently, Al-Ittihad agreed to cancel his contract, allowing the 34-year-old player to finally change teams. Fenerbahce blamed Al-Ittihad for uploading documents late, which complicated Kante's transfer and required FIFA's intervention. Kante has been absent from European leagues since leaving Chelsea in 2023 and needs to return to Europe to improve his chances of making the French national team for the 2026 World Cup.
