CHELSEA boss Antonio Conte says N’Golo Kante is ready to return from a hamstring injury.
Kante picked up a hamstring injury on international duty with France earlier this month and was ruled out of action for at least three weeks.
Chelsea had hoped the midfielder would be fit enough to return before their meeting with Manchester United on November 5 but he looks set to make a quicker than expected comeback.
Speaking after Chelsea's 2-1 win over Everton in the Carabao Cup, Conte revealed Kante was on the verge of a return to first-team action.

“We must pay attention and to find the best solution for him. He’s ready
