Chelsea midfielder N'Golo Kante faces a race against time to be fit for the World Cup after being dealt a fresh injury blow.
The 31-year-old was a key man for Didier Deschamps' French side in 2018, featuring in every match as Les Bleus were crowned world champions for the first time in 20 years. The former Leicester City star has 53 senior caps, the last of them coming in June this year, but missed the recent September internationals through injury.
Kante has played just twice for his club this season, starting the Premier League games against Everton and Tottenham Hotspur. Muscular issues have kept him out for a number of weeks, but now the Barcelona target has received some more worrying news.
