Another outstanding season from the French powerhouse saw him lift the Premier League trophy for the second time, as well as being named the best player in England.
The midfielder was voted PFA Player of the Year, FWA Footballer of the Year and Premier League Player of the Season, due to his relentless ability to win the ball back for Chelsea in midfield.
However, a player very much of a similar style, Everton midfielder Idrissa Gueye made more tackles than the Blues star.
While Kante managed a total of 127 tackles in 35 matches, the Everton player broke up the opposition's play 136 times in 33 fixtures, with a higher tackle success rate (65% and 74% respectivelly).
After a phenomenal season for the Toffees, Gueye is tipped to make a move to a big club this summer, with Arsenal in the lead to sign the Senegal international.
