"You have to ask to Hazard (about Zidane) I think. I don't know at the moment. I didn't speak with Eden about Zidane," Sky Sport quoted Sarri as saying.

The Italian tactician stressed he will only aspire to keep players, who want to stay at the London club, adding Chelsea will not force Hazard to commit his future at Stamford Bridge.

"I am not worried because you know my opinion. I want only in my team players who want to play for Chelsea, so I can't be worried," Sarri added.

However, reports in the UK contend the Blues have already opened talks with the winger in an attempt to extend his current deal at the club.
