Chelsea’s ace, Kai Havertz, has shared fresh insights into N’Golo Kante’s humble lifestyle.
Kante is widely acknowledged as the nicest and most humble footballer in the world, thanks to his modest lifestyle.
Despite pocketing huge amounts of money in wages and sponsorship deals, the French midfielder is leading a low-key life, which is in complete contrast to that of most footballers playing at the top level.
So much so that the former Leicester City ace is understood to be driving a Mini Cooper, which cost him a paltry £20,000.
According to GiveMeSport, Kante actually wanted to run to training rather than drive during his time with Leicester City.
Havertz recently disclosed that the France international has not upgraded his phone for a decade.
Speaking to The Guardian, the German star insisted that Kante has no interest in material possessions such as flashy cars and fashion.

“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,” Havertz said.
“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,” he added.
