Chelsea midfielder N’Golo Kante has been tipped by many to win the PFA Player of the Year award because of his consistent displays in the Chelsea midfield.

The Frenchman was a key figure in Leicester City’s title triumph last season and has brought that same rich form (or even more) to the Chelsea team this season.

But the humble Frenchman has instead revealed that Hazard deserves the award more than him.

“For me, it’s easy to say one player from Chelsea,” he told Sky Sports News. “We can all see what Eden Hazard is doing. He’s a different-class player.”
