"(Hazard is) one of the top two or three European players," Sarri said in his first news as Chelsea coach since joining from Napoli, adding that he hopes "to improve Hazard but that will be difficult."

Chelsea has already signed Jorginho from this point of view. Sarri wants to be more successful in the midfield area, but he added that he could also adapt to the players.
Zola's return is likely to go down well with fans, with Chelsea's website saying " Welcome home Gianfranco. "The 52-year-old had been a player, helping them win the UEFA Cup Winners' Cup, Super Cup, two FA Cups and the League Cup.
" I would love "said Zola, who has had management in West Ham, Watford and Birmingham.
