Maurizio Sarri could have a big problem on his hands prior to the Europa League final since the importance of Kante to the Chelsea side is huge.
The French midfielder, who got injured in the encounter against Watford, has aapparently suffered a blow to his knee in training which would make it even more difficult for him to play in Baku.
At the beginning of May before Chelsea defeated Eintracht Frankfurt on penalties, Sarri had said that the Frenchman would struggle to make a potential final. "We could try and get him back for the final if we get there. I am not sure he will be able to play, but we can try," said the Italian.
This season, Kante has played a total of 51 games, 46 of them as a starter. He has scored five goals and given four assists, showing once again his importance to the team.
