Previously, the French player had indeed doubted to appear due to a hamstring injury while defending his team in the Premier League final against Watford (6/5), but later Kante was reportedly fit and returned to training fully with his team mate on (22/5).

Now the news is less great for fans of the Blues, reported by the Daily Mail, Kante continued to be doubted to appear and is threatened to miss the game against Arsenal after he reportedly suffered a problem on his knee when taking part in a training session on Saturday (24/5).

Until now, there was still no direct confirmation from the club regarding Kante’s injury, but the Chelsea medical team was reported to have carried out further checks on the injury suffered by the player.

This news clearly made Maurizio Sarri have to think of another way to determine the composition of players in his midfield, the absence of Loftus-Cheek and Kante has made the Italian manager most likely be putting inJorginho, Matteo Kovacic and Ross Barkley.

It is interesting to see how the match will be played in Baku and who will be the champion, if the Blues win it, then the Europa League trophy will be even more special, as this title will be Sarri’s first title during his career as a manager.
