Hazard’s long-term future at Chelsea is uncertain amid reported interest from Real Madrid, with Sarri saying Wednesday the Belgium captain “has not decided yet if he wants to stay here or if he wants a new experience in another club.”

Speaking about Hazard’s attributes, Sarri says “he has to do more, because the potential is higher than the performances, I think. He has to respect, first of all, himself.”

Asked if Hazard can be one of the leaders of the team, Sarri says “at the moment, he’s not a leader. He’s a great player.”
