N'Golo Kante won pretty much everything in European football. Now he's trying his luck in the lucrative Saudi league, where he'll have another France superstar for company.
Kante completed his widely expected move to Saudi champion Al-Ittihad on a three-year deal Wednesday after six years at Chelsea, with his new club opening its doors to the 32-year-old midfielder with a series of tweets containing the hashtag “WelcomeBox2Box” — referring to his hard-running style of play.
One of Kante's biggest fans is already at Al-Ittihad — Karim Benzema, the reigning world player of the year and a former teammate with France's national team. He moved there this month.
