The Nigeria international says he voted the
Frenchman due to his contributions to the Stamford Bridge giants all season
long
Arsenal's Alex Iwobi says
he voted N’golo Kante as
the PFA Players' Player of the Year over Alexis Sanchez due to his contribution
Chelsea.
The Frenchman, who joined the Blues last summer
after winning his first ever Premier League title
with Leicester City clinched the award ahead of his teammate, Eden Hazard, who
finished as the first runner-up on the voting chart.
Manchester United’s Zlatan Ibrahimovic finished
third behind the Chelsea duo of Kante and Hazard, followed by Arsenal’s Alexis
Sanchez, Everton’s Romelu Lukaku, and Tottenham’s Harry Kane.
And the Nigeria international claims the 26-year-old
midfielder has got something every team would like to have in a player.
"He’s someone that works for the team and even
though he’s a Chelsea player, you have to respect what he does," Iwobi
told Evening Standard.
"He works for the team and just runs non-stop -
he’s got something every player would like to have. Every player would like to
have him in their team.
"The engine, the energy he brings, the
enthusiasm - he is my player of the season.”
