The Football Writers’ Association will announce the 2017 Footballer of the Year on Monday and Chelsea boss Antonio Conte believes a Chelsea player would be a deserved choice.
Conte believes Eden Hazard or N’Golo Kante deserve the award because they are having a really good reason.
“I think this is a great achievement for N’Golo and also for Eden (to be among the contenders), because I think they are having a really good season,” Conte said.
“But I also believe there are many (Chelsea) players who deserve to be in this group who try to win the best footballer of the year.”
