Midfielder N'Golo Kante makes an appearance in training after a hamstring injury as Chelsea prepare for their Champions League game with Lille on Wednesday.

Chelsea have been handed a boost ahead of their Champions League fixture with Lille after N'Golo Kante made an appearance in training.

During the back end of last week, Kante picked up what Frank Lampard described as 'a niggle to his hamstring', subsequently ruling him out of the game with Brighton & Hove Albion last weekend.

However, the World Cup winner was part of the squad which trained at the club's training ground ahead of travelling to France.

At his pre-match press conference, Lampard has indicated that he will not take any risks on Kante's fitness, despite reiterating that it was 'a small injury'.

The Englishman told reporters: "This little niggle he had is a small, small injury. We just need to get it right. We are just careful and it is my duty to work with him. The medical team are working so hard with him.

"I have been there as a player and, if you miss a pre-season through an injury in particular, then you are playing catch-up."

The 28-year-old has been restricted to just four appearances in all competitions during the current campaign.
