Chelsea bid farewell to club legend N'Golo Kante as he joins Saudi Professional League side Al-Ittihad after the expiration of his contract.
Throughout his seven seasons at Stamford Bridge, the 32-year-old midfielder played a crucial role in the team's success, winning multiple trophies including the Premier League, FA Cup, Champions League, Europa League, UEFA Super Cup, and the FIFA Club World Cup.
Kante gained immense popularity with fans, teammates and coaches because he remained humble and calm all the time. He arrived at Chelsea in 2016 after playing a pivotal role in Leicester City's Premier League triumph.
His game evolved over time, contributing to Chelsea's victories in the FA Cup, Europa League, and ultimately becoming European champions for the second time in the 2020-2021 season.
Kante's remarkable performances in the knockout stages, including wins against Atletico Madrid and Real Madrid, and his influential display in the Champions League final against Manchester City were truly extraordinary.
