Kante said: "Personally, he is a player that I discovered because before the selection, I had not worked with him. And he is a player with a lot of quality, a player who makes the differences, who has this technique which is above average.
"And to rub shoulders with the last selection, is still there, we see that he is a player who has a very bright future, I hope, ahead of him.
"What impresses me about him? His technique, his sense of getting rid of certain situations and his ability to be decisive."
