The 30-year-old, who was recently nominated for the 2021 Ballon d'Or award alongside teammates Jorginho and Mason Mount, appeared in good spirits as he interacted with fans.
TikTok user ffsfin posted the moment when the France international took the time to sign an autograph and shake his hand. He also wished him the best of luck for the rest of the campaign.

Kanté, regarded by many as the most humble footballer around, has experienced a number of memorable fan interactions in years gone by.
Back in 2018, the tireless midfielder accepted a dinner invite from a fan and watched Match of the Day.
Twitter user Abzzy Rahman shared an image of the World Cup winner coming over for a meal after claiming that one of his friend's younger brothers met him at a mosque.
"When your friend's younger brother meets Kanté in the mosque for evening prayers and invites him over for dinner," he tweeted. "What a humble person Kanté is."
After missing his train back to Paris on Saturday night, N'Golo Kanté went to a local mosque to pray. :train2:

Kante also stopped for a chat with a fan in his local supermarket last month.
Sarfraz Ahmed said: "Went out for some casual grocery shopping at Asda and look who I bumped into. What a player and what a human being! Very kindly took a picture with me and was so polite.
'He listened patiently to what I had to say, so humble for a player of such class!"
