N’Golo Kante will return to Chelsea after suffering an injury on international duty with France.
The dynamic midfielder played 90 minutes in the 1-1 draw with Ukraine on Wednesday.
Kante tweaked his thigh in the game and will miss France’s upcoming matches against Kazakhstan and Bosnia and Herzegovina.
A statement from the French national team read: “N’Golo Kante will not take part in the next two matches of the French team on Sunday in Kazakhstan and three days later in Bosnia-Herzegovina.
“The Chelsea midfielder felt a pain in the hamstrings of the left thigh at the very end of the match against Ukraine on Wednesday at the Stade de France.
“He had clinical and radiological examinations on Thursday, which revealed a small lesion.
“In consultation with Doctor Franck Le Gall, national coach Didier Deschamps decided to put N’Golo Kante back at the disposal of his club on Friday.
“N’Golo Kante will not be replaced. It is therefore a group of twenty-five players who will fly to Kazakhstan on Friday morning.” (Tribal Football)
