CAIRO – 25 August 2017: Claude Makelele, French veteran midfielder, spoke on August 24 regarding Chelsea’s midfielder N’Golo Kante's performance.

Speaking to Goal, Makelele praised Kante’s performance along with giving him advice to change his style of playing.

Makelele continued, "It might be difficult for him when he gets older. He cannot run like that for 90 minutes. I think he will one day need to change the way he plays. He could use his intelligence even more, and be selective about his runs,”according to Goal.

Makelele concluded, "It is important for him to understand to conserve his energy. He is still young, when he is older, he will understand how to change the way that he plays,” reporting from Goal.

Chelsea’s midfielder Kante is known for his high work rate and the ability to run throughout the whole match without losing his energy. Kante won two consecutive English Premier League medals, with the first one being with Leicester City and the second being with Chelsea FC.
