Caen GM Xavier Gravelaine is delighted for N'Golo Kante over his success at Leicester City.

The former Caen midfielder has been one of the big revelations of this Premier League season.

"I'm not surprised. I say loud and clear that I do not know where he will stop. Where I am happy, it's the fact that he looked to go elsewhere and especially to go to England. I think we're only at the beginning for N'Golo Kanté.

"Initially, he did not look abroad. In the end he did well to listen, he is like a fish in water," enthused Gravelaine to Foot Mercato.

"Every year, he is growing at an unbelievable speed from Ligue 2 to Ligue 1, now he's in the Premier League."
