Premier League champions Chelsea will
challenge for all four major trophies next season, midfielder N'Golo Kante said
after picking up the Football Writers' Association (FWA) Player of the Year
award.
Chelsea sealed the title with a 1-0 win over
West Bromwich Albion last Friday and can add to their Premier League glory when
they play the FA Cup final against Arsenal on May 27.
Chelsea failed to qualify for this season's
Champions League and were knocked out early in the League Cup but Kante
believes that his team can do better next season.
“Next season will be a new challenge because
we are going to try to keep the title, to win the two cups (FA Cup and EFL Cup)
and also have the Champions League,” Kante said.
“For a club like Chelsea, we want to win
everything, we're going to try and win everything. It's a new challenge for
everyone."
Kante, who won the league with Leicester City
last season, has been a vital part of Chelsea manager Antonio Conte's 3-4-3
system and the 26-year-old praised the Italian for the club's success.
"He had a very clear idea of what he
wanted from the team, and from me," Kante said. "Since I joined
Chelsea he puts a winning mentality on everyone. The hard work, the important little
details, he's a winner. He's a hard worker, he wants to work, work and repeat
in every training session to win at the weekend."
