Suddenly, without any introductions, the French star, Ngoulou Kanti, withdrew from the training of his team Chelsea for fear of the Corona virus, amid expectations that he would be absent until the end of the current season from the "Blues", in case the Premier League matches returned.
According to press reports, Kanti prefers to stay at his home during the next stage, due to his family’s medical history and suffering from health troubles that increase his risks if he is infected with the virus.
The world champion with his country won the green light to train at his home, as well as the support of team coach Frank Lampard and the management of the club.
And this player whose smile does not leave his face, and which is not meant by fame or lights, and despite his effective contribution to his country's victory in the 2018 World Cup Russia, he did not ask to take souvenir photos with the precious trophy, and had his teammates - especially Paul Pogba - not taken any photo.
But this innocent smile hides a lot of tragedy and suffering that began during his preparations for the global wedding, as his older brother died of a heart attack, but he exalted himself in pain and went to Russia, and contributed to his country's victory in a title that was awaited by France twenty years.
Before the European League final last season, he suffered a severe injury, and despite that, he insisted on participating and presented an exceptional performance that contributed to his team's victory over Arsenal and winning his third title in the "Blues" shirt.
The player seemed to be used to dealing with pain and facing it, as Kanti's childhood was harsh; His father lost at the age of 11 years, and he had to work as a cleaning worker to support his family.
Two years ago, the French international collapsed in the dressing room, and he couldn't catch up with his warm-up comrades before the start of the Manchester City match that he missed.
Kanti then underwent heart exams and tests, but she showed no problem.
And this season, he suffered several injuries, including hamstring, which were the repercussions of his insistence on participating in the final of the European League while he was injured.
Kanti participated in the first season under coach Lampard in 22 games, before the league stopped last March.
