Eden Hazard has started the season brilliantly, scoring five times in just five games for Chelsea.

Ahead of Chelsea’s Europa League clash with PAOK Salonika on Thursday, Chelsea boss Maurizio Sarri insists he will talk with the club doctor before deciding whether to play Hazard or rest the Belgian.

“I don’t know now because I want to have a very clear picture of the situation, who are the players who need to rest or not,” Sarri said.

“I don’t know about Hazard.

“I want to speak with him and I want to speak to the doctor and then I will decide.

“Of course either Hazard or Pedro will rest on Thursday.”
