KL Rahul has been in the form of his life right from the beginning of the Indian Premier League 2018, where he made a mark for himself as a dangerously dependable limited-overs opener. He has to a certain extent made in-roads in the Test squad as well and with the axing of Murali Vijay, his path appears a little less complicated.

The sporting extravaganza in England as the English Premier League (Football) has kick-started and the blockbuster India-England Test series is only adding to the excitement. A lot of Indian cricketers avidly follow EPL and every time they tour England, try to meet up a few big names in the Footballing fraternity.

KL Rahul met France and Chelsea superstar N’Golo Kante, who is coming into the tournament on the back of an unforgettable World Cup campaign. One of the best holding midfielders in the world right now, Kante’s energy and presence of mind played a humongous role in France lifting the World Cup for the second time in their history.

Rahul and Kante discuss Cricket and Football

The Frenchman and the Indian opener discussed a lot about cricket and football in their meetup. Kante apparently was also unhappy with the fact that Rahul is not a Chelsea fan.

Both the players have some crucial games lined up ahead as Rahul aims to consolidate his position in the Indian Test side and Kante aims for more glory under the newly appointed Chelsea Manager Maurizio Sarri. Kante, who usually doesn’t score a lot of goals, has already struck the netting twice this season, which clearly indicates that the Italian manager is exploring new sides in the player.

“We spoke about his World Cup Experience, how he started off and made his way up here. He wasn’t really happy that I ain’t a Chelsea fan though. Really Humble Guy. Respect,” KL Rahul said on Instagram.

Here’s the video of their conversation.
