5 midfielders who deserved to win the Ballon d'Or

#3 N'Golo Kante

Kante is one of the most hardworking players this season

N’Golo Kante won back-to-back Premier League titles with two different teams and was pivotal for both. Chelsea and Leicester City will be forever grateful to the Frenchman for his unmatched performances.

His commitment in the midfield allowed both teams to dominate the opponents despite having just two men in the centre of the pitch. He was shuttling from box-to-box and intercepting almost all the balls that were going past him.

If doing the job of two players on the pitch and winning the league for his side isn't enough to get the Ballon d’Or, then it’s difficult to understand what is.
