Kante has never been a CDM though, he played in a 2 man midfield previously in which he was a CM

First thing most fans would do if they were manager...

Put Kante back further.

I say most...

He has played DM before, seven times for Conte. One MOTM performance, a few average games, and got torn apart by Arsenal causing Conte to reshape the entire formation.

So yeah, he's mixed as a defensive midfielder.

Agree Tablighi. But under Sarri's system, CDM is the only alternative - that's what I was saying. Sarri does not play a central 2 so the best position for him is that right sided midfield position to make use of his incredible running and pressing. Kante does play in more of a CDM for France however, and although it's probably fair to say he isn't utilized to his maximum when playing for France - he is a World Cup winner in that position so he's not too shabby there either.
