Today is the world champion Kante’s 29th birthday.
Kante made his senior debut at Boulogne and then spent two seasons at
Caen, the latter in Ligue 1. In 2015, he joined Leicester City for a
fee of £5.6 million and became an integral member of the club’s first
ever Premier League title in his only season at the club.
The
following year, he joined Chelsea for a reported fee of £32 million,
winning the league again in his first season. He also won the PFA
Players’ Player of the Year and FWA Footballer of the Year and became
the first outfield player to win back-to-back English league titles with
different clubs since Eric Cantona in 1992 and 1993.
Kante
made his senior international debut for France in 2016. He was included
in their squad that finished runners-up at that year’s European
Championship. Two years later, he was a key member of the French team
that won the 2018 FIFA World Cup.
