5 Chelsea players to watch out for in the 2018-19 Premier League season

Huddersfield Town v Chelsea FC - Premier League
Maurizio Sarri is the new man in charge at Stamford Bridge

# 3 N'Golo Kante

Chelsea v Manchester United - The Emirates FA Cup Final
Kante has had three superb seasons in England

N’Golo Kante adds a lot of bite in the midfield along with Cesc Fabregas. He has been a busy player manning the midfield with aplomb. Kante has also been exceptional with his ball controlling abilities inside the box. He played a crucial role for Leicester in the 2015-16 season when the Foxes won the title.

The Frenchman was a vital cog for his team in the recently concluded World Cup. Kante can also be handy when it comes to his ability to win the ball from the opposition players, with some brilliant and intelligent tackles. The midfielder is technically strong and is the heart of the Chelsea midfield.

Kante is also capable of creating chances for the forwards with his clever moves and precise passes. The 27-year-old has time and again proved his ability to deliver during pressure situations and Maurizio Sarri will be hoping the Frenchman comes good with some determined performances. Kante started the season by scoring the Blues' first goal of the season.
