Emmanuel Petit believes N'Golo Kante would be a good addition to Arsenal.

Kante has won almost everything on offer in the footballing world, including the World Cup, Champions League and Premier League titles. The France international now plies his trade in Saudi Arabia after nearly a decade in the Premier League, and Kante is still a regular contributor on his national team well into his 30s .

With his skill set and wealth of experience, Kante could be a useful option for an Arsenal side looking to climb back into the Premier League title race after falling to fourth place, according to Petit.

"N’Golo Kante still has what it takes to play at the highest level, I have a huge respect for him as a player, he just might not be able to play as often as he did," Petit told Casino Hawks.

"He isn’t exactly the same player as he was but he is 33 and still has real quality, his personality and his character and commitment can be so valuable to a club.

"He is in Saudi but could still be a real asset for a team like Arsenal and Mikel Arteta, he would be top class in a rotation for Arsenal and it would be a good move for him too.

"In terms of mentality, he would give 100% for his team-mates, he brings something special."
