The Belgium international further fueled the speculation when he said in October 2018 that it was his dream to play for the reigning European champions.

Hazard has 10 goals and 10 assists in the league this season, often playing up front in a ‘false nine’ role to lead the attack. But Sarri might play him on the wing again after the arrival of Argentine striker Gonzalo Higuain.
