It is 50/50 whether Kante will feature in the Europa League final
Speaking to the media on Tuesday, Sarri said: “He had a little problem in his knee. It’s not a serious injury but the problem is the timing because we have only four days to recover. We are trying.”Kante had been on course to make a full recovery from a hamstring injury which kept him out of the semi-final second leg against Eintracht Frankfurt and the Blues’ final match of the Premier League season against Leicester.The World Cup winner picked up the blow in Chelsea’s 3-0 victory over Watford earlier this month, limping off the field at Stamford Bridge after just ten minutes of action.The setback means Sarri will likely have to field a midfield trio of Mateo Kovacic, Jorginho and Ross Barkley in the final.The Blues left for Baku on Monday and Sarri is already without three key members of his squad.Ruben Loftus-Cheek, Callum Hudson-Odoi and Antonio Rudiger have already been ruled out for the final.
