Just 6 days before the World Cup kickoff, N’Golo Kanté’s French wife announced she was filing for divorce, believing that under French law their assets would be split 50/50 regardless of the circumstances. However, during the court proceedings, it was later revealed that Kanté had no assets in France, while his properties and wealth in his home country were registered in the names of his twin children. As it stands, Kanté is now the one entitled to receive a share of her assets. After hearing the outcome, she immediately wanted to call off the divorce, but the verdict had already been passed.
