Chelsea’s N’Golo Kante is currently the “best central midfielder in the world”, says Blues legend Frank Lampard.
Kante, 25, scored as Antonio Conte’s side beat Manchester United 1-0 on Monday to reach the FA Cup semi-finals.
Former England captain Alan Shearer, a BBC Sport pundit at Stamford Bridge, said: “I think you are looking at the Football Writers’ player of the year and the players’ player of the year.”
Lampard described Kante as a “driving force” as Chelsea chase a Double.
The France international, who arrived in a £30m deal from champions Leicester last summer, has been a key figure as the Blues have moved 10 points clear at the top of the Premier League.
