(Image Source: https://metro.co.uk) N’Golo Kante is set to make his return to Chelsea’s squad today, and manager Graham Potter has mentioned that the club must be cautious in reintroducing the midfielder after his six-month injury lay-off.
The Blues have splurged £600m over the past two transfer windows, bringing in players like Enzo Fernandez, but they have been lacking Kante's energy and effort in the middle of the park.
Kante resumed first-team training earlier this month, and he has been included in Chelsea’s squad for the game against Everton.
Though Potter is thrilled that Kante is back, he has stated that caution must be taken due to the Frenchman's lengthy injury history.

He has offered to take a pay cut from his current £300,000-a-week salary, but he rejected the club's most recent offer, which was reportedly a one-year deal with the option of an additional 12 months.
