Chelsea star N'Golo Kante has reportedly offered to finance the search of missing Cardiff City player Emiliano Sala and his pilot.

The news sent football world into panic as all efforts to locate the plane or the passengers remain unfruitful.

However, rescue operation has been carried out but there was no sign of the plane and the two passengers are yet to be rescued.

After embarking on a three day search of the English Channel, the rescue team gave up all hopes, while authorities also said they were “no longer actively searching" for the missing plane.
