Last week, reports claimed that Chelsea are willing to offer the midfielder a contract worth £200,000 a week, which would make him one of the best-paid players at the club.
Kante still has three years remaining on his current deal with Chelsea.
The midfielder has endeared himself to fans due to his modest celebrations following Frances victory at the World Cup.
Kante appeared reluctant to pose with the World Cup trophy in the immediate aftermath of the 4-2 win over Croatia on Sunday, while he has also looked embarrassed when his France teammates have serenaded him with his own personal song.
