Barcelona legend, Andres Iniesta has praised a Chelsea player in a recent interview with RMC sport.
“He’s a player I’d like to have had in my team for many years,” he told RMC Sport.
“He’s definitely a player I love because of the work he does on the field and the confidence he has in his game.”
“His mastery makes him the centrepiece of Chelsea and the France national team.”
France National team? Yes!
The Chelsea ace that Iniesta wants in his team is not Chelsea’s starlet or Sarri’s hotshot Eden Hazard but is French veteran of Iniesta, N’golo Kante.
The 27-year-old Frenchman has been turning touches into glories. Wherever he steps or for whichever team he plays, never misses to triumph back home.
Be it his contribution to Leicester City’s out of the blue title win or Chelsea’s title win in his first season for the Blues & not to forget his handout performance for 2018 World Cup Winner.
Iniesta has had experiences of facing his compatriot in UCL competition and International friendlies and the Frenchman has captivated the Spaniard.
The midfielder who is a wannabe of many has found his pick of the bunch in shy, pacy & tricky Kante.
How does Kante respond to this quantum of praise from the man appropriated by many, will be an acknowledgement worth a wait.
