Gianfranco Zola explains Maurizio Sarri's decision to play N'Golo Kante in right-sided Chelsea role
The HinduN'Golo Kante was happy to play in a more advanced midfield position under Maurizio Sarri last season, according to former Chelsea assistant Gianfranco Zola. The 28-year-old won back-to-back Premier League titles in his favoured holding role, with Leicester City in 2016 and Chelsea in 2017, while also playing a key part in France's World Cup triumph last year. Kante was arguably less influential than usual in what was a mixed first and last campaign for Sarri at Chelsea, but Zola has defended the decision to play him in a more right-sided position. "At Leicester he played with Drinkwater, who was the sitter," said Zola, who left Chelsea following Frank Lampard's appointment as head coach in July.
