N’Golo Kante continues usual shy self as France team go wild during Benjamin Lecomte’s initiation song

N'GOLO KANTE continued to adorn himself to fans after showing his shy side during Benjamin Lecomte's initiation song.

The France newbie got the rest of his international team-mates banging tables and swinging napkins while belting out Italian folk song "Bella ciao."

But the quiet Chelsea midfielder, who was sitting next to the Montpellier goalkeeper, could only raise a smile while everyone else were in a party mood.

Defender Adil Rami even offered him a napkin at the end but Kante ignored the offer before Lecomte quickly sat back down on his seat.

It was no wonder the team looked in high morale as they embark on their first fixtures since being crowned world champions.

Lecomte was handed his first call-up ahead of the games against Germany and Holland after Hugo Lloris pulled out with injury.

But Kante's reaction stole the show on social media with one saying: "The humblest man in football."
Another wrote: "Love this man" and "Love humble N'Golo."

One more added: "I absolutely love N'golo Kante... he's quite literally the nicest footballer ever!"
Kante's humble nature further came to light after the World Cup final when he had to ask a team-mate to hold the famous trophy.

Club team-mate Olivier Giroud even backed up the claim and revealed: "He is so shy so he didn't want to say 'give it to me', so he had to wait.

"Sometimes people came in front of him. At the end of the day someone took it and gave it to him."
In January Kante crashed his beloved secondhand Mini Cooper while driving to take on Arsenal.
Shunning flashy motors despite his £110,000-a-week pay cheque, he rocked up to training the following day still driving his battered car.


His rise to fame has been meteoric having played in France's ninth tier seven years ago.
