Eden Hazard is yet to start a game for Chelsea this season after he was given an extended holiday due to his exploits with Belgium at the World Cup.

Chelsea boss Maurizio Sarri has admitted he is considering playing Hazard from the start against Newcastle United.

“I think that Eden is ready for 50, 60 minutes. I don’t know for 90 minutes but he could start,” Sarri said.

“I am happy with him that he wants to play, I think it is the right way to think for him but I have to think for everybody. And what I think is more important.”
