Hazard made his thoughts perfectly clear after helping Belgium to third place at the World Cup in Russia that he was torn between Chelsea and pursuing a dream move to Real Madrid.
However, Sarri said Chelsea’s offer – reported to be worth £350,000 a week was on the table and now the ball lay in Hazard’s court.
Sarri said:
“The club is available to sign a new contract immediately, but it’s up to him if he wants to renew or not.
“I want Eden here, of course, but I want him here if he wants to stay here.
“I know very well that there are discussions between the club and the manager of Eden every week, I think, so if there is something new, the club will call me immediately.”
Spain international Cesar Azpilicueta, one of the longest-serving players at Chelsea, signed a new four-year contract on Tuesday, which if he completes will take him to 10-years at the club. French World Cup-winning midfielder N’Golo Kante also recently committed his future to Chelsea, signing a five-year contract.
