  • Kante is facing a race to be fit in time.

    Barcelona legend Andres Iniesta has heaped praise on Chelsea star N’Golo Kante and said he would have loved to have played with him.

    The 34-year-old is currently playing for Japanese club Vissel Kobe and doesn’t expect to get the opportunity to line up with the French midfielder.

    But he has praised one of the stars of the Premier League as the ideal engine-room sidekick.

    “He’s a player I’d like to have had in my team for many years,” he told RMC Sport.

    “He’s not going to come to Japan, but 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.”
