Why Conte is betting everything on Kante to win the Scudetto?

Conte is betting everything on Kante

If you’ve been following Inter’s pursuit for Kante you’ll know the French midfielder has been struck by injuries and his form is far from the best. Then why risk everything on a player who has no experience playing in the Serie A? That’s because N’Golo Kante powered Leicester to a Premier League title before moving to Chelsea and doing the same under Conte. The French midfielder suits extremely well to Conte’s preferred system. Furthermore, Conte is in no mood to spend on unproven players who’ll take time to fit in. Thus, Conte is betting everything on Kante because he can make the Juventus wall fall.
