Chelsea are reportedly set to be without star midfielder N'Golo Kante for Wednesday's UEFA Europa League showdown with Arsenal.
According to Adrian Kajumba of the Daily Mail, the France international is unlikely to recover from a knee injury in time for the match in Baku, Azerbaijan.
"Kante twisted his knee in training on Saturday, and the World Cup winner's absence in Baku on Wednesday night will leave manager Maurizio Sarri down to the bare bones in central midfield," wrote Kajumba.
It's reported Kante was on course to be ready for the game as he sought to recover from a hamstring problem that kept him sidelined for Chelsea's last two Premier League matches of the season.
