Kante has returned to Chelsea after suffering a minor hamstring injury while
on international duty with France.
Kante played all of France's 1-1 draw with Ukraine in their World Cup
Qualifier at the Stade de France on Wednesday but felt some discomfort after
the game.
Examinations revealed a problem and he will now miss his country's upcoming
Group D matches against Kazakhstan and Bosnia-Herzegovina - both of which
are live on Sky Sports.
France coach Didier Deschamps has opted not to call up a replacement for
Kante.
Chelsea boss Thomas Tuchel must now wait to see if Kante will be fit to face
West Brom at Stamford Bridge when the Premier League resumes again on April
3.
Kante has been a regular for Chelsea this season, having made 36 appearances
for the Blues in all competitions under both Tuchel and Frank Lampard.
