The midfielder was pictured leaving the Blues’ Cobham base on Thursday afternoon after being told he could train from home on Wednesday.

Kante, 29, joined Chelsea’s first training ground session on Tuesday after testing negative for coronavirus.

He looked to be in good spirits as he sported a new haircut.

And Kante, widely regarded as the nicest man in football, even rocked up to Cobham in a shiny new Mercedes instead of his classic Mini.

But Frank Lampard gave the star his blessing to continue working out from home a day later.

Kante’s father passed away when he was just 11 years old.

And the World Cup winner also lost older brother Niama to a heart attack.

Kante himself fainted in front of teammates at the training ground two years ago.

And he was understood to have concerns about the safety of going back to duty.

Kante wasn’t the only star seen leaving Chelsea’s base today.
