EPL: Kante speaks ahead of game against former club

Chelsea will tonight go head to head against Leicester City in the English Premier League.

Ahead of the match, Chelsea midfielder N’Golo Kante who used to play for the Foxes games against his former club always hold a special significance to him.

He, however, said his focus on the match is to make sure the Blues secure the third spot in the table as a loss to the Foxes could bring Tottenham closer.

‘Of course when we play against Leicester it is always special,’ he said.

‘Leicester were my first club in England, gave me my first title in England. We achieved some great things and it’s very special to play against them as a club. But many of the players have changed and of course now I’m a Chelsea player.

‘It’s been years that I’ve been playing against them and finishing in the top three with Chelsea is all that I will be focusing on. It’s important because we’ve been in this position for so much of the season and it’s important to keep it to the end and not let it go. We have to finish the season in the best way we can.’
