Chelsea midfielder N'Golo Kante rejected a tax evasion scheme because “he wants a normal salary".

The news comes from the latest batch of Football Leaks which have released hacked emails showing scrupulous activities by football clubs, the latest of which have focused on Manchester City.


Kante was urged to start an offshore company where his image rights money would be sent too. Chelsea encouraged him to take up the option.

But the World Cup 2018 winner rejected the opportunity.
