Read Time:57 Second
N’Golo Kante could be ruled out of the 2022 World Cup in Qatar after relapsing from his hamstring injury, according to reports.
Kante sustained the injury during Chelsea’s 2-2 draw with Tottenham in August. The 31-year-old underwent regular rehab sessions with the club’s medical staff and returned to training at Cobham at the end of September after missing six matches.
The French midfielder did not, however, travel to Italy for Chelsea’s Champions League game against AC Milan on Monday.
Manager Graham Potter said he had suffered a ‘reaction in training’ while L’Equipe are now reporting that the 31-year-old has relapsed from his hamstring injury.
The French news outlet is claiming Kante could sit out Chelsea’s next five games as a result of his injury meaning the 2018 World cup winner is at risk of missing out on the 2022 World Cup in Qatar given the tournament starts on November 20.
Currently, France’s head coach Didier Deschamps, has less than three weeks to name his World Cup squad.
Therefore, Kante will need to prove he is fit enough to compete on the international stage before that.
