Chelsea news: Hazard joins elite group as Azpilicueta talks about his teammate's future

Chelsea ended manager Maurizio Sarri's debut Premier League campaign with a goalless draw away at Leicester City on Sunday.

The point meant that the Blues finished the season in third place and guaranteed Champions League football for next season.

While the Premier League campaign may now be over, there is still one thing that Chelsea need to do before they can pack up for their summer holidays.

The Blues face London rivals Arsenal in the Europa League final in Baku later this month, where they will be aiming to get their hands onto some European silverware.

Hazard joins elite Premier League group

You wouldn't be surprised if I told you that Eden Hazard has been an important player for Chelsea this season.

The Belgian has been in scintillating form in 2018/19, and has been the subject of much speculation about where his future lies. Whatever happens, the player has written himself into history by joining a list of just three other people in Premier League history to have recorded 15 or more goals and assists in one season.

Hazard has scored 16 goals and assisted 15, which has only been matched, or bettered on three occasions in the Premier League.

Such is the form of Hazard, speculation about a summer move away from Stamford Bridge has been rife for months.

A move to Spanish giants Real Madrid now looks likely, with the player said to have made a decision on where he wants to play his football next season.

Team mate Cesar Azpilicueta has given his thoughts on Hazard possibly moving on in the summer.

"Obviously Eden is a very important player for us," he told Sky Sports .

"We arrived here at the same time and obviously we want him to stay with us - but we have to respect his decision.

"He is a Chelsea player and his mind is only doing well with Chelsea and on lifting the trophy in Baku - and then we will see."
