(Reuters) - Chelsea midfielder N'Golo Kante has not recovered from an ankle injury and will miss Saturday's Premier League encounter with Sheffield United, manager Frank Lampard said on Friday.

The 28-year-old missed the 3-2 victory over promoted Norwich City last weekend and was not called up by France manager Didier Deschamps for next month's Euro 2020 qualifiers against Albania and Andorra.
