The midfielder was heavily linked with a move to Paris Saint-Germain throughout the summer transfer window, as the club prioritized signing him. But he decided to stay with the Blues this season as the European transfer closed, which was huge boost for the new manager Maurizio Sarri.
With the new manager changing the formation to a back four, he has been a encouraging a more attacking mindset from the player, who is best known for his defensive work-rate.
He has made the transition very smoothly as he scored in the opening Premier League fixture and continues to impress his head coach with his work-rate.
Sarri has admitted that he has been surprised by how technically talented Kante is and claims he can play anywhere in the midfield without any problem.
‘Kante is a great midfielder,’ The 59 year old said as quoted by Metro.

The Premier League goants have won all their Premier League fixtures so far and will look like to extend that in their upcoming fixture against Bournemouth.
