N’Golo Kante is a doubt for Chelsea
However, the France international is reported to have sustained a knock to his knee and looks set to be sidelined which is a massive blow to Chelsea who hope to win the competition for a second time, when they contest the all-English showdown in Baku on Wednesday.
Chelsea are already without Callum Hudson-Odoi and Ruben Loftus-Cheek who both suffered ruptured Achilles tendon injuries, while defender Antonio Rudiger is out after knee surgery.
Prior to the news, Maurizio Sarri had been optimistic of having Kante back at his disposal.
“Of course we are trying to recover Kante. He had a part of the training yesterday with the group, so we are optimistic,” he said.
