Chelsea star N'Golo Kante is closing in on a much-anticipated return to action after suffering a hamstring injury against Tottenham on August 14 which has seen him miss almost all of the 2022/23 season.
After undergoing surgery to rectify the issue in October, Kante has since been completing his rehabilitation at Cobham and the Frenchman took a significant step towards recovering at the beginning of March. For the first time in seven months, Kante was back out training on the grass, although he only took part in the warm-up drills.
Graham Potter then offered a significant update on Kante which certainly hinted that he had not suffered a reaction to stepping up the intensity of his training. "N’Golo had his first full training session today (March 3) but obviously still needs time," Potter said.
