Chelsea have paid tribute to departing midfielder N'Golo Kante.
Kante has signed a three-year deal with Al-Ittihad and will go to Saudi Arabia on a free transfer.
Chelsea co-sporting directors Paul Winstanley and Laurence Stewart said in a joint statement: "N'Golo's influence at Chelsea cannot be overestimated.
"His tireless performances in midfield contributed to several trophies and secured him a place in the club's history books.
"We wish him the best of luck as he embarks on his next chapter."
