The Blues are apparently demanding £70m for the 27-year-old, who joined the Stamford Bridge club from Leicester City for £30m in 2016, according to the Daily Mail.
It is claimed that PSG sporting director sporting director Antero Henrique has spoken to the player's agent Karim Douis about a possible move with Kante not ruling out a return to Ligue 1.
Chelsea are apparently weighing up moves for Amadou Diawara of Napoli and Jean Michael Seri of Nice and Lyon's Tanguy Ndombele as they attempt to rebuild their midfield.
27-year-old Kante has already been linked with moves to Real Madrid and Borussia Dortmund.
The former Caen player has won the Premier League and FA Cup at Chelsea over the past two seasons to go with his Premier League triumph at Leicester two years ago.
Kante flew to Russia with the rest of the France squad on Sunday. They begin their World Cup campaign against Australia on Saturday in a Group C that also includes Peru and Denmark.
