Chelsea forward Eden Hazard has hailed the work done by Blues manager Maurizio Sarri amid increasing speculation regarding the former Napoli boss’ future.

Hazard, though, is content with how Sarri has looked to coach the team since his arrival at the start of the season, suggesting that the style of football he is now playing is the best since he arrived in England.

“All the managers I’ve played for have given me something,” he told Chelsea’s official website . “From when I started with Claude Puel at Lille, to now with Maurizio Sarri. They all see football in different ways which is why I’m the player I am.

“They have all given me important advice. Jose Mourinho was special, but the way Sarri and [former Lille manager Rudi] Garcia like to play is more like my philosophy of football. They’ve all given me a lot.”

Hazard himself has faced a number of reports regarding his future over the past 12 months, with the 28-year-old continually linked with a move away from Chelsea.

It is understood that Hazard is hopeful of completing a move to Real Madrid this summer in a deal likely to be worth in excess of £100 million ($130m), with the player himself suggesting recently he has made a final decision on his future .
