Latest – Chelsea handed massive injury blow ahead of quarters

N’Golo Kante is out of Chelsea’s clash with West Brom – and is likely to miss next week’s Champions League quarter-final against Porto.

The France midfielder suffered a torn hamstring on international duty and is training alone while he recovers. 

Better news for Thomas Tuchel is Thiago Silva’s return from a thigh injury and Tammy Abraham’s recovery from an ankle problem.

The Chelsea boss on Kante: “It’s very likely Porto is too soon. He is doing individual training and from then on you can do the maths.
