Chelsea midfielder N'Golo Kante: PFA award great honour

Chelsea midfielder N'Golo Kante is proud to be the PFA's Player of the Year.

Kante looks set to win a second consecutive title with Chelsea, who are four points clear of Tottenham with six games left, and could add to his trophy haul if the Blues beat Arsenal in next month's FA Cup Final.

He told reporters: "To be chosen by the players to be player of the year means a lot to me.

"It means the world to be chosen and it's been two beautiful seasons, one with Leicester, and we are in good form with Chelsea. To be player of the year, it's a great honour."

On how he has made the move a success Kante added: "It's a different type of playing, but with the manager, with the players, everything is easy, because we work a lot to be good in the games. It's working very well."
