July 10, 2018 Belgium's Eden Hazard in action with France's N'Golo Kante [REUTERS]France midfielder N'Golo Kante will return to Chelsea after sustaining a hamstring injury on international duty, the country's soccer federation (FFF) said. The 29-year-old felt some discomfort towards the end of France's 1-1 draw with Ukraine in Wednesday's 2022 World Cup qualifier. He underwent tests on Thursday, which revealed a minor injury and will now miss France's matches against Kazakhstan and Bosnia on Sunday and Wednesday. The FFF said in a statement tht national coach Didier Deschamps had decided to send Kante back to Chelsea after consulting with medical staff. "Kante will not be replaced," the FFF added.
