redfiona99First, let me handle the obvious question - why Kante and not the equally tiny Riyad Mahrez, who might be even more successful? Mostly because waif-like wingers are more common than tiny-but-mighty in the engine room that is defensive midfield.
According to Chelsea's official stats, Kante is 1.68 m (5 foot 6 inches) and 72 kg.
He has won the Premier League twice, the FA Cup, the Champions League, the Europa League and the World Cup.
In total, Kante's trophies weigh 85.8 kg so yes, Kante's trophies outweigh him.
L asked for an extension to this - when did Kante's trophies outweigh him? The answer will be presented pictographically below.
It was in 2019, when Chelsea won the Europa League.
(I am only including team trophies here, a full list of his individual ones can be found here - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/N%27Golo_Kant%C3%A9#Honours. I am not including the Super Cup or the Club World Cup, because I have taste.)
