Chelsea midfielder N’Golo Kante has dismissed
suggestions he ranks among the world’s best players.
N’Golo Kante
Kante won the Premier League title with Leicester last
term and has established himself as a key cog in
Antonio Conte’s Chelsea side following a £32million
summer move.
The France international will win a second successive
top flight medal if Chelsea can hold off Tottenham in the
race for the league crown and has won plaudits for his
energetic, combative displays in deep midfield.
But Kante has brushed off talk he should be considered
among the best talents on the planet
“Last season we were champions with Leicester and at
the moment we are top of the league with Chelsea.
“That’s why people put it on me but it is not me. I have
been in two good teams.”
“I am not one of the best midfielders in the world or
something like that. I play with some talented players
like Cesc Fabregas, Nemanja Matic and Nathaniel
Chalobah. They have different styles and I can learn
from everyone.”
“I need to keep improving tactically, defensively and
offensively for the last pass, the last shot.”
And Kante says his ability to cover every inch of grass
comes from a love of the game.
He added: “People say ‘look at his energy, look at his
tackling’ but I always wanted to give the best for the
team and if I need to run until the end I will try to.”
