Kai Havertz stunned by N'Golo Kante as he gives amazing new insight into Chelsea star's humble lifestyle | The Sun

KAI HAVERTZ has revealed brilliant details into the humble life of Chelsea team-mate N'Golo Kante.

Kante, 32, has won the Premier League twice, along with a Champions League, FA Cup, Europa League and World Cup.


But it is widely known that the former Leicester midfielder lives a modest existence off the pitch.

He continues to drive a Mini Cooper – a £10,000 car he has owned since 2015.

He was also once spotted shopping in Asda, taking a picture with a fan as his "man of the people" legend grew further.

Now Havertz, who joined Kante at Stamford Bridge in 2020, has added to this image by claiming the Frenchman has not upgraded his phone for a decade.

The German also insists Kante has no interest in material possessions such as cars and clothes.

Speaking to The Guardian, he said: "There’s an image of footballers, all fancy and diamonds and this and that.

"I have met players who spend so much on things where you think: ‘Why do you do this?’

"There are players who don’t care but others do. It’s not always about saying: ‘I did this.’ That’s sometimes a bit fake.

"I’ve met different characters. Toni Kroos is one: calm, down to earth, doesn’t care about flashy stuff. He knows life is not only football.

"N’Golo Kante is another. He’s had the same phone for 10 years, doesn’t care about cars, doesn’t care about clothes.

"You cannot judge people because of [spending]. If that makes them happy, I don’t care. Maybe in their heart they are also good people, they just want to act cool.

"Sometimes maybe it’s kind of a protection."

Kante has been missing since August with a hamstring injury, but returned to the bench for Chelsea's draw with Everton before the international break.

He will now be hoping to secure his first minutes in seven months when the Blues host Aston Villa on Saturday.
