World Cup Qatar 2022, France loses a star player

N’Golo Kanté may not be on the field in Qatar

With just under forty days to go before the start of the 2022 World Cup to be held in Qatar comes tremendous news for France, which will have to do without one of the stars of the winning ride four years ago, N’Golo Kanté.

According to reports from ‘L’Equipe,’ in fact, the 31-year-old midfielder will have to sit out for as many as three months after a relapse of his hamstring injury, confirmed by instrumental examinations that the Chelsea-born player himself carried out in London on Friday.

This is no small blow for Bleus coach Didier Deschamps, who is already grappling with the physical problems and uncertainties surrounding another midfielder who was a major player in Russia in 2018, Juventus’ Paul Pogba.
