Kante's contract at Chelsea expires in under a year, and Arsenal believes there may be a chance to lure him to the Emirates.
In order to surpass Arsenal's fifth-place position from the previous season, Mikel Arteta wants to add more elite defensive players to his midfield ranks. Additionally, with Kante's contract nearing its end, Arsenal is prepared to find out if Chelsea will cash in right now.
Kante, 31, is a campaigner with a ton of experience who has made over 400 professional appearances. He won Premier League championships in 2017 with Chelsea and 2016 with Leicester.
The seasoned midfielder has also caught the attention of Manchester United. Frenkie de Jong, the star player for Barcelona, remains Erik ten Hag's major priority.
Kante, along with Ruben Loftus-Cheek, will miss Chelsea's tour of the United States since he is now at home.
It is understood that neither midfielder satisfies the entry requirements because non-US citizens are not permitted into the country unless they are fully immunized. This is a setback for Chelsea manager Thomas Tuchel's preseason preparations as the Blues depart for their two-week tour.
Last season, both players missed games due to the virus, with Kante testing positive ahead of Chelsea's pivotal Champions League encounter against Juventus in September, which they ultimately dropped.
At the time, Tuchel steadfastly refused to provide Kante's immunization history, but he did add: "Of course we take actions and are ultimately accountable for them.
"We dislike losing players. However, we are no longer upset with N'Golo. Like every injured player who receives a kick during a game, we are worried about him.
Kante, 31, is a hugely experienced campaigner with over 400 professional appearances to his name. He won Premier League titles with Chelsea in 2017 and Leicester in 2016.
Manchester United have also been actively eyeing the veteran midfielder. But Erik ten Hag's top priority remains Barcelona ace Frenkie de Jong.
