N'Golo Kante injury latest: Likely Chelsea return date, Tottenham hint, Graham Potter update

N'Golo Kante's absence has been a massive blow for Chelsea and Graham Potter this season. The midfielder has been sidelined since the 2-2 draw with Tottenham on August 14 after limping off with a hamstring problem.

Following the London derby, former Blues boss Thomas Tuchel delivered a worrying update on Kante's injury. "It seems another muscle injury, the hamstring," Tuchel said. "He said he feels it is pretty strong, so no good news."

Now, under Potter, Kante is yet to make his debut for the Englishman. The 31-year-old's absence has played a key role in the Blues' difficult season, with Todd Boehly forced to splash £106million in the January transfer window to sign Enzo Fernandez.
