Injury boost as key Chelsea man could return against Real Madrid
Ever since he pulled on the Chelsea shirt, the Argentine starlet has arguably been our best player. Enzo Fernandez proved his worth by consistently performing even under pressure. The 22 year old has got an eagle’s vision, impressing the Chels’ faithful with his progressive passing and finding unexpected attacking options.
However, it is clearly evident that Fernandez is missing a reliable partner in midfield who could give him to freedom to go all out and contribute even more to the attack. He has been used often in a very deep role where his attacking prowess is severely restricted.

The return of the man himself, N’Golo Kante, will help massively in that regard. The Frenchman completed his rehabilitation and returned to action with the development squad in a friendly behind closed doors while the squad was away on International duty. And after spending seven long months on the sidelines, Kante will be raring to go.

Chelsea midfielder N’Golo Kante should be ready for Real Madrid clash
Graham Potter has three Premier league games against Aston Villa, Liverpool and Wolves before the squad travels to Madrid. And the Gaffer can use these games to help Kante build match sharpness and can be integrated into the squad gradually.
Kante’s abilities on and off the ball are elite and cannot be rated highly enough which is exactly why most managers be it at Chelsea or at the International stage have tried to build their teams around him. And in his absence, have seemed to struggle and face major setbacks.
The tireless midfielder’s return to the squad will boost the West Londeners’ chances of progression against the Spanish giants Real Madrid who are slight favorites going into the contest.
If everything works out as planned, Kante will be bossing the midfield at the Santiago Bernabeu negating their home advantage and then hopefully securing a spot in the Semi Final of the Competition at Stamford Bridge.
