There’s some very quick feet and skill before the weak finish. What a player.

What do we think?
Joining Leicester City in August 2015 for a fee of £8.1m, Kante made a total of 40 appearances for the Foxes in all competitions during the 2015/16 season before leaving The King Power Stadium to join Chelsea in July 2016, commanding a transfer fee of £32.22m, according to Transfermarkt.co.uk.
Kante featured in 37 of Leicester’s 38 Premier League games during the 2015/16 season in which the Foxes historically won their first and only ever Premier League title. Additionally, Kante was named Leicester City’s ‘Players’ Player of the Season’ for the 2015/16 campaign.
Considering that Kante played in all but one of the Foxes’ Premier League games during their title-winning season of 2015/16, in addition to the fact that his teammates voted him as their ‘Player of the Season’, it may be fair to say that Kante made a significant impact for the Foxes during his only season at The King Power Stadium.
As a result, it may be understandable why some Foxes supporters have been reacting positively to this footage sharing his only goal for the club, which came in a 2-1 Premier League win over Watford.
