N'Golo Kanté Fenerbahçe

Word out of Fenerbahçe is that N'GOLO KANTÉ shows up before anyone else at training and is still there after the last guy walks off. That alone tells you plenty. But the same reports say a big chunk of his salary goes to charity, which is the part that really gets me. Humble, hardworking, always chasing another level for himself. That's the whole package, and it's why the admiration keeps coming his way on and off the pitch. Heart of gold, plain and simple. Football could use more guys wired like him.
