'Good news' - Kante's return excites Chelsea fans

Chelsea fans in Nigeria have expressed delight after visuals of midfielder N’Golo Kante in training emerged.

The midfielder who has been on Chelsea's injury list for some time hasn't featured for his side since August.

The Blues have been in a bad run of form losing six in 17 games.

They lost again to bottom feeders Southampton on Saturday.

Since Potter took charge, they have only picked up two victories in his last 14 league outings.

That leaves him with a dismal win percentage of just 29.4 percent - lower than any other manager during Chelsea’s time in the Premier League.

Kante's return to the team will come as a big boast as the second half begins.

Sunshine Mary said: "The feeling of seeing mom back from market when we were kids is the same feeling we have seeing Kante back as Chelsea fans Hope he picks up form as soon as possible."

Oluwadamilola Ajayi commented: "My God! Kante for allow us play Chelsea finish before he return na. Which kain wahala be this. We go play another draw this season again?"

Abiodun Ajala said: "Good news"

Arizona Nelly Jr. wrote: "This is good news on a personal level, cause Kante deserves to be fit. But Potter will still use him as a wing back"

Eze Miracle Arinzechukwu said: "He'll be shocked when he enters the dressing room and see that it cannot contain all the 200 Chelsea players."

Pascal Zubby De-Optimist commented: "With Potter, nothing is good news now in Chelsea. Was he not same Coach that introduced Kai in a match and played him where he kept getting the ball on his right foot (his Weaker link) until the match ended, he didn't see it. He knows nothing. Welcome back Kante. But, I am not happy still."
