'I've never seen a midfielder like him': New Premier League arrival Onyeka heaps praise on Kante

Frank Onyeka, one of Nigeria's brightest prospects, signed with Brentford from Midtjylland during this transfer window.

Speaking about the Premier League, he highlighted Chelsea's N'Golo Kante as the player he looked up to as a youngster.

"I do of course watch the Premier League, one of the best leagues in the world, I watch Premier League back home and I've been following the Premier League all these years," Onyeka said to Brentford's official website.

"I'll say Kante. Before he moved to Leicester City I followed Yaya Toure now more of Kante.

"I think it's more of Kante now because I watch him a lot. The way he plays is pretty amazing. I've never seen a kind of midfielder like him. "But he's different, I am different. He's Kante I'm Frank so we're different. I play my own way, he plays his own way."

If Onyeka can have an impact even close to Kante's in the Premier League, he will be a talent to watch out for!
