N’Golo Kanté is set to return to Chelsea on Friday after being ruled out of France’s World Cup qualifiers against Kazakhstan and Bosnia-Herzegovina with a hamstring injury. The 29-year-old played the full 90 minutes of Les Bleus’ 1-1 draw with Ukraine in their opening Group D match at the Stade de France on Wednesday.
However, he sustained a minor injury late on in the game and will now be assessed by Chelsea, who have key fixtures to come in three competitions in April.
A statement on the French Football Federation website on Thursday read: “The Chelsea midfielder felt a pain in the hamstrings of the left thigh at the very end of the match against Ukraine. He had clinical and radiological examinations on Thursday, which revealed a small lesion. In consultation with Doctor Franck Le Gall, national coach Didier Deschamps has decided to put N’Golo Kanté back at the disposal of his club on Friday.”
