Ahead of Chelsea’s clash with Leicester City in the King Power stadium and a return for N’Golo Kante to his old club, Leicester City manager Claudio Ranieri insists N’Golo Kante is better suited playing for Leicester City than Chelsea.
“I’m not surprised at how well he’s done at Chelsea but he could play better with us,” Ranieri said.
“Here he was better suited. He was our battery.
“With N’Golo we played with 12 players and fortunately the referee never counted how many we had on the field.
“All the spotlight was on him here whereas at Chelsea, there are so many champions.
“I hope our fans give him a warm reception because he was our champion. It’s important to remember what he gave us.”
