UCL: “Kante needs to accept that I will cuddle him”

Chelsea boss Thomas Tuchel explained in his press conference that he always needs to show loving gestures to Kante. “He has to get used to this”, he said.

Real Madrid will visit Stamford Bridge this Wednesday to take on a Chelsea side that will focus on their defensive duties and will be tough to break down.

In the press conference previewing the match, Thomas Tuchel analysed what he expected from the encounter, as well as explaining the cute relationship he has with Kante, a player which he admires for his quality and his work rate.

“He needs to accept that I will cuddle him, I do this a lot,” Tuchel said in praise of his star man. “He is a nice guy, almost a shy person. He is quiet, he likes his own quality time and he is not loud.
