Man City whizkid Foden names Kante as Chelsea's toughest player

Manchester City starlet Phil Foden admits Chelsea midfielder N'Golo Kante is a formidable opponent.

Kante is facing a race against time to be fit for the Champions League final against City on May 29.

And Foden is hoping Kante doesn't get up for the showpiece clash.

"He's probably the most obvious one, but it's Kante," said Foden, speaking to Sky Sports. "He's just everywhere.

"You think you've got away from him but he's always just by your side.

"He does everything. He runs everywhere. He's such a great player. I'd probably say he's my toughest opponent I've played against."
