Football Players Association (PFA) has chosen the best player of this season in the "Premier" league. The successful debutant from London's "Chelsea" N'Golo Kante became that player.
The defender continues to experience the best years of his career. He came to England just the year before last, when he moved from "Caen" to "Leicester City".
Although no one expected it, the Frenchman led the "foxes" to the title of "Premier" league champions, and now he is one step away from repeating the same achievement with the "aristocrats".
Meanwhile, the rising star of London's "Tottenham" Dele Alli was recognized as the best young football player. He received this award for the second year in a row.
Having played another great season with "Spurs", the Englishman contributed 16 goals and five assists to the team's victories.
The attacking midfielder is only the fourth player to be named the best young footballer twice in a row. Before him, only Ryan Giggs, Robbie Fowler, and Wayne Rooney could boast of such an achievement.
Returning to all player selections, Kante was also on the verge of recognition last season. At that time, the Frenchman was also considered one of the favorites, but the laurels ultimately went to his former teammate Riyad Mahrez.
This time, the 26-year-old defender was also backed by his teammate Eden Hazard, and the third place in the selections was taken by the "Manchester United" sniper Zlatan Ibrahimovic.
So proud for such a honour! So amazing. As I always said, it's a team work: thx to my teammates, @ChelseaFC members and all the fans.
